I think the date is 202.6ish, now.
Prowler company sent it’s forces over to the planet of Astar. On Astar, they discovered a cell of Cocytus operatives attempting to blow up the mining facility. Thanks to a swift joint strike from both companies, the blow was averted and the sons of Cocytus were publicly executed by Prowler enforcers. The strike was conducted by dropping cables from the flagship in low orbit and having each enforcer and his 200 pounds of power armor slide down at incredible speeds, leaving a small crater where they landed. This incredibly intimidating entrance style has drawn some comments for the damage to civilian structures. However, nobody was harmed and the RC extractions company paid for all damages and insurance claims. This did not even dent the company pocket-book. RC Extraction profits have leveled out, and they are now the wealthiest company in the entire empire. This is due to Uralosric starliner, making transportation cheap, if slow. The ship goes back and forth from the moon outpost to Astar, taking three months per trip.
Meanwhile, Eggersdorf Bei Graz has finished the secret colony ship. It took much longer than normal because all materials had to be shipped in secretly, and all personnel had to disappear quietly, one at a time. Now, it just needs a captain to step forward. Also, upgrading the facilities of Beii city and the surrounding environment. Already, three mining facilities have been retrofitted to full efficiency.
Jahannam has almost completed it’s facilities, with only three to five months of construction left. The massive series of laboratories will be free for use from corporations and independent use by an individual. Eventually, it is hoped that a large network mainframe could connect all these facilities much better than a simple internet system, so that research speeds could be increased by a factor of up to 30%.
