However, the evacuation is winding down, with only one shuttle launch remaining before Earth is abandoned fully by humanity.

* GoMadFromTheIsolation: Mad is a stretch, but Sam has been by herself at her outpost for months, with no one but her boyfriend Elon to talk to by email. She's definitely been alone a bit too long by the time Micah finds her. However, he isn't much better.

* MayDecemberRomance: Micah is about twenty years older than Sam.
* MinimalistCast: The movie's cast consists of just Sam, Micah, briefly her father and (over the radio) Elon.
* SoleSurvivingScientist: A surprisingly low-tech version of this in the form of Sam Walden (continuing a project started by her dead father, who also broadcast messages urging lingering humans not to leave Earth) who tried to clear out the toxic atmosphere by raising and training bees to pollinate enough oxygen producing plants. [[spoiler:By the time Sam succeeds she may be the last person left on Earth and it’s unclear if anyone else will come back.]]
* SomeoneToRememberHimBy: A non-fatal version. [[spoiler:Sam is seen with Micah's son in the last scene, after he's left Earth and she stayed.]]
