2138

Italy proposes a worldwide system of weather satellites to allow humanity control over the weather, which has evidently become more violent in the past years, Ice Age notwithstanding. Several other nations back this idea, and a worldwide system is seen as an international effort.

More fighting occurs in the First Martian War, as dubbed by the media as multiple colonies and states try to defeat the Republica de Martia, which is now reduced to about 64% of its original size.

2139

Several nation pursue more advanced weather satellites, using them for either themselves or a joint usage between multiple nations.

Experts believe the First Martian War will be over by the mid 2140s, perhaps earlier. Support is waning for the "ultra-hispanic" regime.

Winters become colder. Very much colder, with some regions reporting a 3ºC drop in temperature from normalcy.

2140

The Japanese nuclear warp-drive is successfully tested, accelerating the test craft to 1.1 light speed. The only issue is that it is now in orbit around Neptune.

The topic of Solar System exploration is brought on the table. In the light of recent British efforts to fully explore the Solar System, the International Committee On Systemic Exploration, or ICSE, is formed to fully map the local system completely.

Astronomers are beginning to seriously considering changing Earth and the Moon's official designations to something more unique, perhaps Terra and Luna.

South America, Egypt, South Africa, India, Manchuria and Oceania activate the International Weather Satellite System. It is a joint venture between the aforementioned nations.

The Martian War ends as Republica de Martia is annihilated in their bastions on Mars. War crimes are exposed, and the guilty are punished with exile. Many celebrate this turn of events, even those in Iberian and South American colonies.

2141

Two new nations are now on Mars. With six independent states on the planet, the United Nations of Mars is formed.

A proposal from the 21st century to terraform Mars resurfaces. It details the placement of a large dipole magnet, ranging from 1~2 Teslas in strength and place in L1 orbit around Mars. It is theorized to cause a domino effect leading to the gradual terraforming of Mars.

The effects of the Ice Age begin to wane in Patagonia, Australia, Northeast Asia, the Indian subcontinent, the Sahara and Southern Africa. Winters are less harsh.

By the discretion of the International Astronomical Union, the Solar System will be renamed to the Helios System, the Earth to Terra, and the Moon to Luna.

The ICSE lays out their proposal for intrasystemic exploration. From 2141 to 2150, the Inner Solar System is to be actively charted. Smaller vessels seeking some extra cash may contribute to exploration efforts.

2142

The effects of the Ice Age are noted by the public by now. Global temperature has risen from -5˚C to -3˚C overall within the past few years.

A project is planned for the implementation of an artificial magnetic field for Mars. Several nations prominent in the technology and space logistics scene are called in to help.

Refugees fleeing from the Martian War have invoked their right of return, an estimated 534,000 are on transit to Mars from their respective refugee nations or colonies.

2143

The orbit of Mercury is noted to be almost completely mapped. The received information is collected in a data library, available for the public to view.

The topic of the boundaries of asteroid mining comes into question after 12 mining ships are found collecting metals from asteroids within the territory of the Russian Asteroid Federation of Petrachov, presumably illegally.

2144

After years of preparation, Franco-Iberia and the CEF begin the process of unification. Italy will also be included in this, and will form the European Federation formally.

The prospect of a united North America is not that far off, experts say. All three nations residing in the continent could form a powerful entity comprising of two superpowers and Canada.

Due to opposition from several nations, it is decided that all nations operating weather satellites must not intentionally alter the global average temperature beyond  -4˚C, unless it is warranted due to a severe disaster.

2145

With the maintenance of the average temperature at -4˚C, experts predict the Ice Age will last longer than forecast, but humanity has already prepared for it.

The second Japanese nuclear warp drive is much more successful, in the sense that it functions as planned and brought back its predecessor.

In the light of globalist actions by Western nations, the African nations and some in Asia begin experiencing globalist movements themselves.

Chinese hostility towards India emerges with many threats made by the new prime minister in an attempt to annex the country and bring China to what is was in the 21st century. Border skirmishes form and nearby nations get involved. A Russian peace mission fails when their diplomatic flight gets shot down by the Chinese killing many crucial diplomats and the president sparking Russian hostility. This war is known as the Chinese Indian War.

The terrorist organization shows support to China, and is rumored to have received supplies from the Chinese government. This sparks hostility from uninvolved nations.

This year, the Organisation takes an unprecedented step in terrorism. For 2 hours, half of the Martian-Canadian city of New Vancouver is put into a blackout. Later, just minutes after the city's power is restored, the Organisation released a 2 minute video claiming responsibility and promising of 'more to come'. The figure in the video was dressed in a fully red suit and shirt, and wore a yellow mask. This sparks a media frenzy, finally giving the Organisation a face (sort-off).

2155

The Great Expedition begins with 224 ships of various size and shape from up to 60 political entities system-wide participating. This is seen by many to be a defiant stare in the face of terror in a time dominated by headlines about the Organization. Peace and scientific advancement are the ultimate goals of humanity.

On the 21st of May Standard Earth Time (SET), the Organization carries out it's most daring attack yet. In a spectacular show of coordination, the headquarters of 42 different police organizations across Earth and Mars are simultaneously attacked by gunman dressed as civilians. They are identified as Organization members by the red and yellow bandannas they put on just before attacking. Though their numbers were small (~5 per station), they inflict massive casualties thanks to suicide bomb vests. Up to 232 people are believed dead. No attackers survive.

2156

The various ships participating in the Great Expedition continue on their journeys, with a total of 12 ships so far stopping at Alpha Centauri and Barnard's Star System respectively to fully map out those systems. The rest continue on into the cosmos.

The Organisation continues their reign of terror this year with 8 separate attacks on government buildings across human civilization. However, seemingly beginning to realize they did not have the audience engagement they wished for, the Organisation begins releasing a series of propaganda videos. They all seem to point to possible pro-Chinese secessionists in the outer solar system, with most of their videos posted in Chinese.
