2055 -- The first permanent colony is established on [[Mars]] at Amundsen Base. Taking advantage of the latest technology and experience from Luna colonies, plus a "boom town" atmosphere from being near [[Phobos]] and [[Deimos]], and cheap recom labor, the colony grows more quickly than most observers would have thought possible. | 2055 -- The first permanent colony is established on [[Mars]] at Amundsen Base.

2070 -- Emergency hydroponics programs ease the famine on Luna, but food and other supplies will be rationed for many years to follow. The Luna Council adopts a new constitution based on full independence from Earth and equal rights for all intelligent beings. On Mars, Marshall Redwolf declares Earth under quarantine: in particular, no refugees will be accepted. The MDF warship //Ares// fires upon and destroys a passenger ship arriving from Earth. The Luna Council transmits a message to Mars, deploring the action. Two NATO patrol ships defect to Luna and are soon adapted to become the core of a new Space Defense Force (SDF) based on Luna. | 2070 -- Emergency hydroponics programs ease the famine on Luna, but food and other supplies will be rationed for many years to follow.
