They know that the cosmological natural selection theory (in which black holes create new universes with physical constants mutated slightly from our own) is correct. They intend to escape our universe through a black hole into a new universe using some contrived technology. Biological life wouild certainly be killed by any significant change in the fundemental constants of the universe, however if the right constants were modified singificantly little it may be possible for certain elements to keep properties close enough to those they have in our univese that it may be possible to build devices that could function in both. This is a lifeline for the civilization, as they've long since abandoned their physical bodies. Perhaps due to a correlation between the mass of the black hole and the size of the resultant uni
