Then Again: The Ninth Milliaeon
Dinosaurs, a 1987 short
story by Walter Jon Williams, is set in an interstellar empire eight million
years in the future, populated by post-human Tellurians bioengineered to
extreme specialisation, to the point that their empire is a gestalt entity of
mindlessly aggressive expansionism
This is approximately as far in the future as the
evolution of chimpanzees was in the past.

The crew of the Ark are abandoning Earth because
they believe it will be destroyed by Solar Flares: but The End of the World established that at this point the planet is less
than half-way through its eventful history. We may assume that the Solar Flares
leave it sterile of anything more than bacterial life and eject it from the
Solar System.
