The chronicle spans seven eras from 1965 ES through the 27th century. Two have been drafted.
Era I · 2000–2099 ES — The Soviet Energy Programme and the Western Contest
The Soviet Union pivots to thorium, consolidates lunar helium-3, and builds the Kuzmin Drive while Western institutions fracture. By century’s end, the UN has relocated, orbital industry has rendered Earth-bound launch obsolete, and the Pathfinder Fleet departs for Jupiter. Closed with Emi Kato’s 2099 interview — the first Mars-born voice in the documentary record.
Era II · 2100–2199 ES — UN Interplanetary Governance
Ceres water-credit economics, first extraterrestrial life at Europa, D-chirality across nine worlds, the rise of CAI/Oracle, the Hygiea black site, the Pluto first-contact arc, the Charon Anchor and Vacuum Well hypothesis, the secret Vanguard battleship program, the Antimatter Bond’s overdue launch, the entropic-gravity confirmation, and the Ark’s departure from Pallas. Governance, embodiment, and the growing evidence that humanity is not alone.
Era III–VII (2200–2699 ES) are not yet drafted.
