Well, you'd better hope your supernatural force has whisked you to Mars, or
one of Saturn's moons and set you up with a cozy environment and many sexy
in-heat women, because form your vantage point, all you'd see is a very

humans and many billions more of various plant and animal species. Perhaps
you could ask your supernatural force why it would do such a silly thing?
