More than 50 warp-powered ships departed Earth since 2063.^[1]
In Earth's own first initiated first 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.^[2]
The remains of the pre-war defense net of Earth detected 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, intercepted a Tellarite explorer-merchantman, unknowingly the second contact with that species within mere days.^[3]
Captain Tarasco of the SS Valiant initiated self-destruct as the dire consequences of the encounter with the galactic barrier were realized.^[4]
