| MARS BASE SARA INCIDENT Back in 2005 CE, several months after the assassination of the 1st UEG Prime Minister & shortly before the appointment of the 2nd Prime Minister, an Unidentied Flying Object (UFO) enters Sol-system undetected. The unknown intruder zooms & slips in near Mars, specifically on Sara Base, a UN Research & Development Center. The lone ship later detected the presence of a new technology on the red planet, not unlike its own, but more similar towards their hunted objective – a technology fields by a spaceship that escaped their clutches 6 years earlier, Earth standard. It is by that time, the Research Center scientists are experimenting on a new, reliable method of producing unlimited & clean energy based on technologies gleaned from the fallen SDF-1 – which is known as Reflex Furnace generator (which powered by Protoculture – unknown by its name at that time). Earth based communication center lose contact with Sara Base soon after, shortly after receiving a distress communiqué that all the research center staff are being evacuated. From surviving records, it is believed that the lone ship has destroyed the escape shuttles, killing all Sara Base personnels & in the process, the ship also perishes by unknown means. UEG never sent any investigation team to Mars following the Sara Base incident, & keep the world public in the dark for months before making an announcement regarding the incident. UEG propaganda arm under Senator Napoleon A Russo quickly put the blame squarely on anti-unification terrorist groups; however the identity of the real perpetrators is never known. UEG High Command continues to be puzzled with Sara Base Incident, but more pressing matters on Earth put the case on backburner. Never do humanity realize, the first incursion of Sol-system has been put into motion by the visit of the lone ship responsible for Mars Base Sara Incident – alien in origin, known by its given original name; Tou-Redir scout sloop ship. Unbeknownst to humanity too, shortly before the ship’s destruction, it manages to send a coded message to outer space. A message that contains a precise location of Sol-system & of Earth, send through hyperspace to 101st Assault Combined Fleet – Breetai Kridanik Command. The alien fleet slowly changes its course & make its way to Sol-system as it will take the fleet another 4 Earth standard years to complete its journey to hunt for their ultimate objective, the SDF-1. The Zentraedi are on their way to Earth …… |  |
