Morality is a conceptual standard that serves as a guide to human behavior. When considering if an action should be undertaken, if that action is in accordance with a person's accepted morals, then it is considered good. If it contradicts them, it is considered bad. On what basis the person has accepted that particular standard or how it came into existence in the first place does not necessarily require the existence of other people. You want more?

Behavior in relation to what? There are no other people to help or to harm, there are no other people to judge the behavior. What does morality even mean in that context?
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
