2055

Historical Events

• The United States Air Force cancels plans for the launch of its WD-1, a faster-than-light test vehicle.

The actual statement allows for a launch scheduled for 2055, but canceled beforehand. However, the assumption here is that the craft's development failed to proceed far enough to warrant a launch and it was canceled the targeted year.

• The Eastern Coalition formally becomes a nation, subsuming the member states as political regions and retreats within the haphazard recovery processes that help define the era known as the Post-Atomic Horror.

• The final edition of the Treaty of San Francisco, formalizing the end of World War III, is signed.

• Copernicus City is founded on Luna.

Year is conjecture, but is presumed to have a college there well before 2078.
