Historical Events
- Early: Captain Tarasco of the SS Valiant initiats self-destruct as the dire consequences of the encounter with the galactic barrier are realized.[2]
- In Earth's own first initiated contact, the SS Leif Eirickson arrives in orbit of Tellar. The ship radios home the report of contact with another sentient, space-going species, though the transmission won't arrive until 2284.[4]
- The remains of the pre-war defense net of Earth detect a small vessel of unknown configuration entering a Neptunian approach corridor claimed by both Texan and Central African gas mining corporations. A task force of ten ships, led by the Liberty class USS Bonhomme Richard, intercept a Tellarite explorer-merchantman, unknowingly the second contact with that species within mere days.[4]
- The first series-produced interstellar spaceship class, the Verne survey cruiser, is committed to serving under the United Earth flag. The nations operating the Verne ships promise to make all their findings public through the UE Space Probe Agency.[5]
- It is assumed that the United Earth flag is flown by the New United Nations, until the rise of the actual United Earth in 2130.
- Following training and surgery this year, the American government attempts to insert Zebulan Carter, via a trade mission to Vulcan, into the High Command. He never reports in.[6]
- The Trade Council of Earth, the Vulcan High Command, and the Alpha Centauri Concordium sign a trade agreement, including delineating major space lanes and trading routes. This will form a series of trade corridors that, in time, become the backbone of the Federation’s own space lane network.[7][8]
