Lieserl

Lieserl is the title of the fifth story in Stephen Baxter's science fiction anthology Vacuum Diagrams. It was originally published in Interzone in 1993.

Set in A.D. 3951, it documents the title character's life as a genetically engineered child who ages rapidly enough to dive into the Sun and record its decay, being caused by an unidentified outside source, from a human perspective.
