Historical Events

• January 01: A major shift occurs in Earth's global economy.

• Colonel Green surprises the surviving United States government by turning up in Alaska at the head of a massive army comprised of both NUN and ECON soldiers. President Mendoza orders Green to stand down, but is refused; Green slaughters his way across the continent, culling the "weak" and "impure" and those afflicted with radiation-sickness from humanity's gene pool, killing millions.

• Inspired in part by what will become the Conestoga project (or the Great Experiment), New Berlin colony is established on Luna and multiple mining colonies within the asteroid belt are set up and begin sending necessary resources.

The year is conjecture, based on the 2067 launch of the Conestoga. The city hosts some form of Star Fleet post by the late 24th century.

• The Australian Space Defense (ASD) is founded from the large number of ground-based ISA command and control assets located in that country. The newly-sovereign nation of Texas forms the Texan Aeronautics and Space Agency (TASA) from its co-located NASA assets.
