Historical Events
- Early: Captain Tarasco of the SS Valiant initiated self-destruct as the dire consequences of the encounter with the galactic barrier were realized.[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.[3]
- 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]
- The first series-produced interstellar spaceship class, the Verne survey cruiser, was committed to serving under the United Earth flag. The nations operating the Verne ships promised to make all their findings public through the UE Space Probe Agency.[4]
- 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.
