Only to find that what we observed using optics is Kepler of 1400 years ago since its 1400 lightyears away. Primitive civilization has just been established there, rudimentary stuff such as irrigation and whatnot. Little did we know that the voyage there was funded by corporations, their main objective is to eradicate all life and gather the planet's resources. 80% of life there has been annihilated (without our knowledge) with a few surviving here and there in caves and such, they scratch drawings on cave walls to depict what is happening to them. Once they are all eradicated, they gather the resources and leave. Only for 5 renegade member of the mission to escape and restart life there. Due to some malfunction (or sabotage?) in the wormhole tech, they return to earth when the neanderthals were still roaming. Most of them commit suicide others try to make them submissive and teach them, eventually they humans die and peace is returned to old Earth. The 5 at Kepler continue living and reproducing (Using sperm cell donor canisters) to advance life there.
