Historical Events

• February 7th: Contact with Charybdis is lost, following indications from telemetry that the spacecraft is at a velocity 12x that necessary for solar escape (or 1.68% of c).

• August: Tau Five, the Jacob, launches along the same track as Charybdis, in order to discover what might have happened to that mission.

Month of launch is conjecture.

• Maersk Space Freight abruptly withdraws from its lease contract with Yoyodyne Propulsion Systems, implicitly condemning the DY-130 interplanetary transport.

• Construction begins on the DY-140 commercial interplanetary transports.
