for anyone that wants whis concept as an entire sci-fi story:

this is almost literally the plot of "children of time" by Adrian Tchaikovsky!

excellent trilogy, but the first part can be read as a standalone story!

Seconded. They are great novels, and quite original!

I've been meaning to check out their novels. Thanks for the reminder.
