In Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter's "The Long Earth" series, the term "Steppers" refers to individuals who possess the ability to traverse parallel Earths using a simple device called a "Stepper Box." The Long Earth is a multiverse where countless alternate Earths exist, each slightly different from the others. Steppers can "step" from one Earth to another, exploring the infinite possibilities of existence.
