In the beginning, all humans had was a nest—a cave dwelling. This nest was their home, but under harsh conditions, it offered little protection. In the darkness, they sat up in the foul-smelling cave, listening to the movements of the night. Fear slowly crept into their hearts. They had lived for so long yet had never heard such sounds. Tigers approached silently, their presence only revealed by the slipping of soil or the unintentional breaking of branches. But this creaking sound continued, growing louder. It sounded like a colossal beast moving through the night, with no intention of hiding its presence and unconcerned about any obstacles. (Excerpted from 2001: A Space Odyssey)
