[edit] January
- January 1: The positions of the planets, as seen from above, are roughly thus: Mercury at 7:00, Venus between 3:00 and 4:00, Earth at 12:00, Mars at 6:00, Ceres at 4:00, Pallas at 3:00, Vesta at 7:00, Jupiter at 11:00, Saturn at 11:00, Uranus at 12:00, Neptune at 4:00, and Pluto between 10:00 and 11:00.[30]
- January 5: The "Notes from the Editor" section of Ductran Maneuvers admonishes, "Do something, Otha! Get off your asteroid and lead us!" Herzog later responds to his Ductran Brothers and Sisters, saying they shold not be inhibited in talking about his "arse" or "butt," and corrects that Huruf al-Hayy is not an asteroid but an orbital station. "Meanwhile, my butt, like the rest of me, serves the noetic Totality, even when it is just sitting there doing what looks like nothing."[31]
- January 6: Dazyl Grenich's Lifestyles reports that Kostbaar has announced that the mourning is over: no more faux-French berets, no more black. He announces his new look will hit the ramps in Rio this spring.[8]
- January 14: The Æsculapian Order makes its extern postings, a list of students' scores and proposed assignments.[32]
- January 16: The Olympus Tribune reports on a string of unsolved disappearances over the last two months. What's unusual is that many of the disappearances are occurring in middle-class sectors.[33][34]
- January 29: An area known as Freak Alley in Luna's Wroclaw Sector, directly beneath the Beaulac Clinic, has collapsed. Some witnesses report hearing explosions just prior to the collapse. Dr. Grabowski of Beaulac offers free medical help to all residents of Freak Alley, even if they were unharmed by the collapse.[35]
[edit] February
- February 4: In a border resistance report from FSM Colonel Theodore Whitman to Brigadier General Samson Fourke, Whitman notes that the Canadian resistance movement offers little threat, but it's frustrating that "such poorly-equipped rabble" manage to survive, like cockroaches scattering when the light is turned on. Mexican freedom fighters, on the other hand, are well-organized and well-funded, receiving support from South America and possibly from Norça.[36]
- February 6: Dr. Jerzy Grabowski receives a message from Miranda, telling all project heads that they've been compromised. Personnel are to be shipped to Mars or Earth via Basel, but the project is very close to showing viable results, so research must continue.[37]
- February 7: Earth-to-Moon transport The Painted Bird visits Lunar Orbital Station Strongsville and returns to Olympus three hours later.[38]
- February 8: The Norça retrieve the final transmission sent by Cantor Station in the station's wreckage after an Aberrant attack.[39] Also recovered is a "John Doe," recovered by Norçan César Sweeney.[40]
- February 10: A commission of the Unified Lunar Police Force is called at Olympus' International Center to analyze the recording from Cantor Station.[41]
- February 15: Dr. Jerzy Grabowski sends a memo to all Beaulac Clinic staff regarding the imminent departure of Dr. Mangels and Dr. Doris Ashiluna to Earth and Mars, respectively. At 17:30, the cafeteria on Sublevel 5 will host their goodbye party.[42]
- February 16: Dr. Mangels leaves Luna's Beaulac Clinic for Earth.[42]
- February 17: The Æon Trinity's Extraterrestrial Office's Deputy Office Director, Giorgios Alekandros Gamemenos sends a briefing to a group of Æon operatives regarding the string of mysterious events transpiring on Luna.[43]
- February 20: Dr. Doris Ashiluna leaves Luna's Beaulac Clinic for Mars.[42]
- February 24: A Lunar net-mail digest contains a plea to send data-dex entries to Craig Shergold, a kid in Olympus' elgee labs with an inoperable brain tumor.[44]
- February 28: A Lunar net-mail digest contains an advertisement for the Solar Justice League, who claim to provide legal assistance to Aberrants.[45]
[edit] March
- Between now and June, Earth passes the three large asteroids of the Asteroid Belt: Ceres, Pallas, and Vesta.[30] Mars is located almost opposite the Earth from the Sun.[46]
- March 1: A Newsday holobrief reports on the possibility that the ISRA Universal Congress has been cancelled.[47]
- March 2: A tour group goes through the Spaceflight Museum in Luna Park.[48]
- March 3: A Lunar net-mail digest contains a directive from "Ancient Master" to murder five people in order to receive their soul-energy.[44]
- March 5: A nano-tube extraction system fails deep inside Linma Telcom, killing three psions and allowing an Aberrant known as Fiore to escape. He comes across a maintenance crew in Boltzmann Residential Sector 2 and lashes out, killing all five. He is later found nearly comatose and returned to Linma secure facility.[49]
- Boltzmann Station Local News reveals that a killer is loose, possibly inspired by a deranged transmission from "Ancient Master." All deaths occurred in Boltzmann Residential Sector 2, but residents across the Station are urged to keep an eye out for suspicious activities.[50]
- March 6: A Lunar net-mail digest contains a warning from Boltzmann Nexus 2's system administrator, who exposes the earlier Craig Shergold post as a fraud, and the "Ancient Master" post the work of a deranged mind.[45]
- March 8: The Æon Trinity's Extraterrestrial Office's Deputy Office Director Giorgios Alekandros Gamemenos sends a briefing to Trinity operatives regarding the unusual events at Boltzmann Crater and how they connect to the events which occurred recently at Beaulac Clinic.[51]
- March 11: The Æon Trinity's Extraterrestrial Office's Deputy Office Director Giorgios Alekandros Gamemenos sends a briefing to Trinity operatives regarding the main leads into investigation of the Huang-Marr Biorg Project appear to have fled to Mars.[52]
- March 12: H. Helen Palle, Senior Research Director, Orgosoft Farms, sends a message to Jennifer Lehoczky-Elliot, CEO, warning her to get The Womb biotech incubator off the market immediately. One-third of its patients have become autistic, and there's no telling how many other bizarre psychological patterns may develop in the future.[53]
- March 14: Dr. Heinrich Mangels has been transferred to the Organ Banks under the name Reinhardt Tuten, and is thankful that Minerva has kept his/her promises thus far. He thinks the assignment is perfect, despite his dislike of the nickname, "Rootin' Tuten," he's been given.[54]
- March 16: Reinhardt Tuten is shocked at the level of incompetence in the Organ Banks. "The staff here seems equally divided between sociopaths and incompetents." He remarks that the only one who may know how many organs come in and out is Catalanotto. Catalanotto "rules the place with an iron fist, which he uses primarily to scratch his own ass." He nearly assaulted a short-timer named Diaz for dropping and cracking a transfer container.[54]
- March 18: Reinhardt Tuten decides that Catalanotto doesn't know how many organs come in and out of the Organ Banks. The records are hopelessly out of date; a quick look shows that the numbers in the computer are too low, contrary to what one might think. The policies on personal effects of the deceased are also not being followed.[54]
- March 20: Reinhardt Tuten has readjusted his gait to Earth's gravity; he knows the others at the Organ Banks have noticed. He worries that anyone with half a brain will know that he's been on Luna.[54]
- March 24: Reinhardt Tuten notices that the Admissions database of the Organ Banks is also out of date; this means they have no idea what organs they have of which type, which means bad matches are being made, which means people receiving organs are dying. Additionally, a cadaver — not listed as a donor — turns up and his colleagues start cutting. The body's had looks like it was bashed in with a baseball bat.[54]
- March 25: Captain Royce Paxton of the Banji Falcon-class hybrid transport Freya reports in his log that the Freya crew has just completed a long haul in the Belt and are looking forward to returning to Earth.[55]
- March 29: Captain Royce Paxton of the Banji Falcon-class hybrid transport Freya reports in his log that something "big" has been picked up on ship's sensors, and the crew figures its worth the risk to check it out. The object appears to be a cargo canister, broadcasting an automated message to be picked up by "Horatio."[55]
- March 30: Captain Royce Paxton of the Banji Falcon-class hybrid transport Freya reports in his log that the cargo cannister has been brought on board, and the crew are opening it up. He is interrupted by sounds of a struggle, and reports of an Aberrant on board.[55]
[edit] April
- April 1: Engineer Glynis Larena of the Banji Falcon-class hybrid transport Freya reports in the ship's log that and Aberrant got on board the ship just over a day ago, and she appears to be the only one left alive. She declares her intent to rig the engines to go critical, after which the log cuts out.[55]
- April 3: Reinhardt Tuten notes that Vaughn spilled KOH in one of the nutrient vats, and tried to cover it up. Tuten raised hell, and six hearts had to be destroyed. He pushes for a full audit, but Catalanotto doesn't want to go through with it.[56]
- April 8: Minerva, through a Schilltronix contact site, has uncovered Reinhardt Tuten's bolt-hole information and sends him some thinly-veiled threats. The audit Tuten was pushing for was killed at Minerva's desk, since it would bring attention onto Tuten, and thus, the Project. Tuten uses this to narrow down the identity of Minerva: Roland Stoltzfus, August Delemont, or Gustav Beitz.[56]
- April 12: An anonymous addendum is made to the February 9, 2112 Triton Division report on the Blight Project. "Well, they were half-right, anyway."[57]
- April 13: Reinhardt Tuten is conflicted, and bothered with the Organ Banks in a way he never was with the Huang-Marr Biorg Project. At least that had a noble goal in mind; what people like Minerva are willing to sanction at the Banks is just lives thrown away out of sheer laziness and carelessness.[56]
- April 16: Norça Proxy Giuseppe del Fuego enters the office of Dr. Duarte Lawrent at a Medellín clinic, angry after the Brotherhood of Human Purity somehow managed to infect his student, Alisha. She will live, but the chances of her regaining use of her psionic abilities — or even full brain function — are not good.[58]
- April 19: Reinhardt Tuten notes that Diaz feels the same way he does, but he can't afford to confide in her. She's working on getting Admissions tightened up while he works on bank security. Minerva apparently thinks that Malachi Ross has escaped Luna.[56]
- April 23: World Enterprises, Inc. broadcasts a special feature where Prexy Alex Cassel discusses psi orders and their role in society, as well as the recent rumours of corruption.[59]
- April 30: Emma Bailes Deputy Director of Neptune Division's European Terrestrial Office, sends a report to its field operatives regarding the recent rumours of corruption within the psi orders. Operatives are ordered to investigate the Montressor Clinic itself.[60]
- Reinhardt Tuten is feeling more pressure from Minerva. Diaz is to be transferred, which she views as a reward. Tuten realizes it's an attempt to deny him allies.[56]
[edit] May
- Triton Division disseminates a memo regarding "computer dynamics": specifically how Orgotek, DataWarp, Iris Systems, Wazukana, Steinhardt and Lyceum Software all interact.[25]
- May 1: Dr. Matthieu Zweidler warns Montressor Clinic staff of the upcoming arrival of operatives from the Æon Trinity, and tells them to offer the visitors every courtesy. Meanwhile, Montressor Security Director Jakob Neihaus warns security of the visitors, who would "love us to be the next Chitra Bhanu."[61]
- Reinhardt Tuten's Organ Banks journal has one final entry. "Diaz left. It doesn't matter. I know who you are now, Minerva."[56]
- May 4: From this date to the 11th, Montressor Clinic is scheduled to play host to psions associated with the Æon Trinity for an investigation.[61]
- May 6: Marilyn Koziana, Deputy Office Director of Neptune Division's North American Terrestrial Office, sends a message to some field operatives. Operatives are asked to investigate the Schilltronix Corporation connection with Orgotek's Blight Project.[62]
- A World Enterprises, Inc. press release announces Prexy Alex Cassel's intention to join the Æon Trinity investigative team looking into the Blight Project.[63]
- Eyrie Station PVU operator Jon Galin Reese sees several ships of an unknown design appearing.[64] Two minutes later, the station's emergency distress beacon declares that they're under attack. The beacon goes silent.[65]
- May 11: Psions associated with the Æon Trinity have their invitation to tour Montressor Clinic extended to this date.[61]
[edit] June
- June 14: Dr. Filomena Alizandrotos sends a message to Lance Alkers regarding multiple personality (more correctly known as dissociative identity) as a supposed symptom of Tolerance Overload Syndrome.[66]
[edit] July
- July 1: According to the original project briefing, the Huang-Marr Biorg Project intends to complete testing by this date.[67]
[edit] December
- December 1: According to the original project briefing, the Huang-Marr Biorg Project intends to commence commercial production by this date.[67]
- December 31: The position of the planets, as seen from above, are roughly thus: Mercury at 7:00, Venus between 3:00 and 4:00, Earth at 12:00, Mars at 6:00, Ceres at 4:00, Pallas at 3:00, Vesta at 7:00, Jupiter at 11:00, Saturn at 11:00, Uranus at 12:00, Neptune at 4:00, and Pluto between 10:00 and 11:00.[30]
