  • Early 2264: Mestiko becomes warp-capable following the launch of an experimental FTL vessel from the nation of Gelta. Its warp signature is detected by a passing Andorian passenger transport, eventually leading to the installation of an embedded team of first contact specialists as prelude to official contact. (MA Short Story: "Things Fall Apart")
  • January 2265: The detection of approaching rogue pulsar PSR 418-D/1015.3 leads to an accelerated contact time-table in efforts at averting the pending global catastrophe. (MA Short Story: "Things Fall Apart")
  • July 2265: The majority of radiation from passing PSR 418-D/1015.3 is blocked through efforts of the USS Enterprise; though over a billion Payav were killed in the disaster, planetary extinction was averted. (MA Short Story: "Things Fall Apart")
