Historical Events
- The first official diplomatic expedition from Vulcan arrives on Earth and influences talks on the Sparon-DeSoto Treaty, which forces the national militaries to crew their armed spacecraft with international members. This results in the Liberty class ships transferring from United States Air Force control to that of the International Space Agency.[2]
- This must have been signed and enforced prior to the December test of the Jules Verne.
- The Phoenix is retired and the warp section stored in a high orbit.[3]
- The infrastructure to build warp engines is being erected at a breakneck pace, revitalizing transportation and communication and totally relocating the industry in a way that makes many former political boundaries meaningless.[3]
- The New United Nations is resurrected, in accordance with the Sparon-DeSoto Treaty. The Earth Cargo Authority is one of its first established departments.[3][4]
- It will again collapse in 2078, giving way to a truly unified world government.
- January: By this time, the Bonaventure has two warp coil assemblies and a fusion powerplant installed.[5]
- The first "operational warp sortie" as a long-term shakedown cruise is assumed, but intended to allow for a longer journey to Tau Ceti the next year.
- April: The SS Defiant is destroyed in a region of space later found to be claimed by the Barrier Alliance.[6]
- 12 May: UNSS Icarus arrives in the Alpha Centauri system, extends her sensor gear, and is hit by radio-frequency broadcasts, low enough in power not to be discernible outside the systems’ ionization bubbles but still undoubtedly marks of advanced civilizations. A first contact report is radioed back to Earth.[7][4]
