An Earth mass black hole has a Schwarzschild radius of 9 millimeters, after it finished swallowing the Earth, it would be quite cool, as there would be no more mass within reach falling into it, the Hawking radiation of a black hole this size would be quite insignificant as well. So the scenario is the Earth was wiped out, but by this time humans had evolved into something else, electronic beings on a computer matrix. At some point this civilization came into contact with aliens from a much older civilization, the Earthlings borrowed one of their wormholes, and created some of their own, and sent them through the larger wormhole into the past, thus they had access to Earth's history, or at least Earth's history that goes back to 4713 BC. From that history, they were able to extract Earth life forms that had otherwise been lost to the black hole. The time periods connected to by the wormholes are not casually connected to the timeline where these wormholes were actual created, so changing history though them doesn't actually cause time paradoxes, but other than massively interfering with the timeline connected to 2020 AD by introducing all these gates, the other timelines have been minimally interfered with and thus has minimal deviation from the original timeline. 2020 AD was considered an optimal period to obtain humans from as this era was right before the first true Artificial Intelligence programs came online, it was the last period where humans were masters of their own planet and were the only intelligent technology using life form on it. There are other portals to time periods before this. There is a similar set up as in 2020 AD for the time period 4713 BC, and some humans have migrated through the gates from that time period, and 4713 BC has been altered as a result, but there was not much recorded history in 4713 BC anyway so it matters little. the humans that inhabit the Orbital when the modern humans arrive, date from that period, each inhabiting their respective continents.</p></blockquote><p></p>
