Campaign Timeline

• NASA sends up the Skylab space station to test the realities of long-term life in space. The station’s third and final crew remains aboard for 84 days. It is a record that will be broken in a few years by the Russians with their Salyut series of space stations.

• The astronauts of Apollo 18, the last of the early manned missions to the moon, discover the first of the Slaver stasis boxes. Its existence is kept a carefully controlled secret and no mention of it is ever made in the official mission logs. Inside the box is a flying belt, which will prove the key towards development of early Terran antigravity systems in the late 1980s.
