               ROBOTECH CHRONOLOGY(1999-2056)

1171a.l. Zor is born on Tirol.

1256a.l. Quadrant exploration by the Tiresian techno-voyager

       dubbed by Zor, the Azstraph--the Venture.

1520a.l. The Azstraph enters the Tzuptum system and inserts

       itself into orbit around Optera.  Zor encounters the
       Flower of Life, makes contact with the Invid, and
       seduces the secrets of the Flower from the Queen
       Mother, the Regis.

1697a.l. The Azstraph returns to Tirol. Zor begins to

       experiment with the Flower specimens he has brought
       with him from Optera.

1724a.l. Zor creates the first of a race of clones, meant to

       survive the high-G situations on Fantoma in order to 
       mine ore for his experiments.  This first clone(Exedore)
       was regarded as a failure.

1755a.l. Zor conjures Protoculture from the Flower and

       eventually falls victim to the Compulsion placed
       upon him by the Tiresian Council of Elders.  Origin
       of the Cult of the Three-in-One and ascendancy of
       the Robotech Masters.  Fall of the Royal Hall, as
       the period known as the Great Transition commences.

1920a.l. Aeon "Robotech" begins. Development of the spacefold

       drive systems for space travel. Creation of Tirol's
       clone population and neural reprogramming of the
       Zentraedi miner giants.

88a.r. The complete defoliation of Optera by the Zentraedi.

157a.r. Consolidation of the empire of the Robotech Masters.

      The Invid, after a burst of monocellular reproduction,
      declare war on the Robotech Masters.

566a.r. Zor's voyages deliver him to Haydon IV, where he has

      a profound encounter with the planetoid's artificial
      sentience, the Awareness, and realizes that Optera
      was the last source of the Flower of Life.  Zor
      receives a vision of the Invid transmutation and
      realizes what he must do.

570a.r Zor designs and builds the starship that will come

      to be called SDF-1 to carry out his Flower of Life
      reseeding program(hoping to return the Flower to
      the planet it had originated from, Earth),and
      backed by a group of loyal Zentraedi, begins his
      "quiet rebellion" against the Masters.

575a.r. Zentraedi commander-in-chief Dolza forms an uneasy

      alliance with Zor, who has by now become hopelessly
      addicted to the dried leaves of the Flower.

580a.r. Zor's clandestine seedings attempts take him to

      Peryton, Karbarra, Praxis, Garuda, and Spheris.

671a.r. Zor steals the single exsisting Protoculture matrix

      from Tiresia and conceals it within the spacefold
      drives of the SDF-1.  The fortress, with its
      skeleton crew of loyal Zentraedi, is folded from
      Tirol's corner of the galaxy.

699a.r During a seeding attempt on Pertyon, the Invid

      catch up with Zor's position and begins a raid.
      In the threat of the battle fortress falling into
      the Invid's posession, Zor sends his battle fortress
      to Earth, manned by a skeleton crew of Zentreadis
      loyal to him.  Zor is killed and the Zentraedi
      Breetai is wounded during the same raid.  Commander-
      in-chief Dolza orders Commander Reno to return Zor's
      body to the Robotech Masters on Tirol.

700a.r. Interstellar war with the Invid, whose homeworld,

      Optera, had been defoliated by the Zentraedi,
      continues to chip away at the fringes of the
      Masters' galactic empire.

      council and Expeditionary Force members on his
      discoveries.
      Roy Hunter is born in Tiresia.  The REF and
      Karbarrans begin work on the main fleet ships.
      Lang's Robotech teams develop an integrated system
      of body armor and reconfigurable cycles, known as
      Cyclones.
      A new protoculture hand weapon is developed, the
      Mars Gallant H90 blaster.

2031 Dana Sterling and Bowie Grant turn 18, graduate from the

      Southern Cross Academy, and are assigned to the 15th
      Alpha Tactical Armored Corps, which includes Sean
      Phillips, Angelo Dante, and Louie Nichols.
      The Robotech Masters arrive in Earthspace to
      retrieve Zor's Protoculture matrix found in the SDF-
      1 for the survival of their race and the Second
      Robotech War begins.
      Dana Sterling is promoted to 2nd Lieutenant after
      ex-c.o. Sean Phillips was reduced to the rank of
      private after a run-in with a general's daughter.
      Communications with Space Station Liberty, the only
      comline to the REF, has been cut.
      Battle at Fokker Aerospace Base.  Dana is promoted
      to 1st lieutenant after mobilizing the 15th (without
      authorization) and leaving their post to be a back
      up contingency to the forces already being defeated.  
      Dana has her first encounter with the
      red Bioroid.
      Dana, Bowie, and Angelo volunteer for the mission to
      reestablish communications with Space Station
      Liberty.
      Dana and Bowie sees Zor Prime(pilot of the Red Bioroid)
      for the first time at the site of the SDF-1.  They are
      discovered and Bowie is captured.  Dana leads an
      unauthorized rescue mission for Bowie disguised as a
      routine night patrol.
      Louie Nichols of the 15th discovers a weakness in
      the Robotech ships and a mission is prepared.  The
      Robotech Masters flagship is crippled and crashes
      near Monument city.
      The Army of the Southern Cross converge on the
      fallen Robotech ship but all actions are harmless
      against the ship.  Lieutenant Marie Crystal of the
      Tactical Armored Space Corp is wounded in battle and
      is rescued by Sean Phillips.
      The 15th is ordered to enter the alien ship for a
      recon mission.  The squad is separated and Bowie
      meets Musica.  Dana and Louie discover that the
      inhabitants of the alien ships are not androids but
      clones.  With the 15th together again, Dana captures
      a Bioroid and is examined with the utmost care by
      Professor Zand.  
      Another ship from the Robotech Masters' fleet
      descends to Earth and lifts its' fallen comrade back
      to orbit.  
 
      Major Carpenter's ships arrive at Earth and futilely
      tries to engage the Robotech Masters but are them-
      selves obliterated.  Survivors are picked up by the
      15th ATAC's.  
      Zor Prime is introduced to the 15th.  Unknown to him
      and the 15th, he is used as a spy for the Masters.  
      Musica rejects her chosen mate Karno.  

2032 The new Armored Jet Attack Copter VT's are produced

      and readied for the 1st attack wave against the
      alien ships.  The attack wave is crippled badly and
      takes refuge on Moon Base ALUCE.  
      On Earth, Dana and Bowie go to the site of the old
      SDF-1 and witness the blossoming of the Flower of
      Life in the SDF-1's reflex engines.  
      A second wave is prepared and General Emerson is to
      be the commanding officer of the mission giving a
      chance to the survivors of the first wave to return
      to Earth with their wounded.  
      Louie Nichols' Visual Trace Firing System is
      integrated into the VT's weapons systems without his
      consent.  
      The ATAC's are ordered to break through the alien
      flag ship's defenses and attempt to destroy it from
      the inside.  Zor, now under the power of the
      Robotech Masters, turns on the 15th and tries to
      capture the squad but the 15th scatters and
      separately explores the entire ship.  Bowie finds
      Musica again and both fall in love.  Eventually, the
      15th is captured but are freed by Musica.
      Zor is taken to the Memory Management Lab to be
      reprogrammed.  The 15th bursts in and interrupts the
      process during the reinstatement of his memory.  Zor
      destroys the core of the ship's power causing the
      destruction of the ship and the 15th leaves the
      alien ship with their hovertanks with Musica.  
      Somehow, Zor manages to escape unscathed.  The
      Robotech Masters transfer to a different ship to
      continue their mission for the matrix.  
   
      General Emerson's flagship is destroyed and he,
      Lieutenant Crystal, and Lieutenant Dennis Brown are
      taken prisoner by the Robotech Masters.  
   
      Nova Satori of the Global Military Police orders the
      arrest and apprehension of the "alien" Musica for
      questioning but is unable to find her.  Bowie has
      taken her to the site of the SDF-1 to see the
      Flowers of Life.  The 15th follows their trail, in
      turn Nova follows the 15th, and in turn again Zor
      follows Nova.  Zor sees the Flowers of Life and his
      memory reawakens and he becomes the original Zor.  
   
      The Robotech Masters bargain with Emerson's party
      for Zor and Musica to be returned to the Masters.  
      The Masters flagship descends towards the site of
      the SDF-1, hoping to retrieve the matrix before it
      mutates into the Flower of Life, then rendering the
      matrix useless.  
      All forces of the planet join at Monument City for a
      final battle against the Masters.  In result,
      Monument City is leveled and there are no survivors.  
      Commander Leonard and staff are also killed.  
      The Masters are killed by Zor and Dana-- after touching
      the two leads of a new matrix made by the Robotech
      Masters.  Dana has a vision of the coming of the Invid,
      telepathically communicated to her by her sister, Aurora. 
      The 15th, Marie, Dennis, and the remaining clone
      population of the Masters leave the doomed ship in
      transports and lands near the SDF-1 site.  
      Zor Prime's attempt at destroying the Masters'
      flagship results in the loosing of the Flowers of
      Life from the Protoculture matrix concealed within
      the spacefold drives of the buried SDF-1; spores
      cover the planet and the Flower takes root, alerting
      the Regis's sensor nebula.  
      General Emerson, Octavia(one of Musica's Triumverate
      sisters), Zor Prime, and Lazlo Land die.
      End of the Second Robotech War.  
      Max, Miriya, and Aurora Sterling arrive on Tirol
      from Haydon IV.  
   
      The Invid "disappear" from Tirol's corner of the
      galaxy.  It is assumed that the Regis has begun her
      move against Earth.  
      The Mars Veritech Group leaves Tirol with 18-year-
      old Scott Bernard aboard.  
      Jonathan Wolff's ship returns to Earth.  An anti-
      Invid underground is established before the Regis
      arrives.  Dana commandeers Wolff's ship after the
      drives are retrofitted with a device perfected by
      former 15th ATAC whiz-kid, Louie Nichols and folds
      for Tirol.  
      The Robotech factory satellite returns to Earthspace
      from Tirol.  
      Optera is fully seeded with the Flowers of Life and
      given over to the homeless Praxians, who rename the
      planet "New Praxis."  The Flowers become the crop
      for a new Second Generation Protoculture matrix
      created by Rem, who has managed to tap his progenitor's,
      Zor's, memories.  
      The Invid Regis arrives.  Her newly hatched army of
      soldiers and mecha destroy the factory satellite and
      easily defeat Earth's depleted defenses.  Hives and
      farms are set up worldwide, and some Terran captives
      are forced to work in labor camps in Canada,
      harvesting Flowers and processing nutrient for use
      in the Regis's Terror Weapons and battlecraft.  
      Admiral Lisa Hunter resumes command of the SDF-3.  
      Arrival of Dana Sterling on Tirol.  With her are
      Bowie Grant, Sean Phillips, Angelo Dante, Musica and
      Allegra, and some of the Masters' clones.  
   
      Shadow Fighters and neutron "S" missiles are
      developed by the REF for the assault against Earth.  
      Instantaneous spacefold becomes a reality for the
      main-fleet ships.  
      Arrival and defeat of the Mars Attack Group sent by
      the REF.  
      Scott Bernard's fiancee, Marlene Rush, dies with the
      Mars Group flagship.  Scott Bernard crashlands on Earth,
      but continues his mission:  To reach the Regis's central
      hive complex, code named Reflex Point.  
      Upon crossing a desert on his Cyclone, he meets
      Rand, who has just discovered the fallen flagship
      from the Mars Group and was joy riding on a newly
      acquired Cyclone when Invid scouts appeared.  Scott
      engages the scouts and destroys them easily with the
      Cyclone's configurable armor.  
      Scott and Rand approach Laako City where they pick
      up Annie LaBelle.  The population of the city turns
      them over to the Invid Shock Troopers, but with the
      help of a mysterious red Cyclone rider, the Shock
      Troopers were dispatched.  The red Cyclone rider
      disappears.  
      Scott and company enter a dust-ridden town and
      attends a club where they see and meet the famous
      singer Yellow Dancer.  A brawl breaks out and Scott
      ends it quickly with a shot from his blaster.  Here
      they meet the mysterious red Cyclone rider, Rook
      Bartley, former of the bike gang, the Blue Angels.
      Here, Lancer(a male robotech freedom fighter in the
      guise of a female singer, Yellow Dancer), and William
      "Lunk" Benovitch(a former robotech bio-maintenance
      engineer) join Scott on his journey to Reflex Point. 
      Lunk provides Scott with a fully maintained and
      operational Alpha fighter.  
      Scott's team discover that the Invid can sense the
      presence of Protoculture emanations.  
      Scott's team makes a pit stop at Norristown.  Using
      a Yellow Dancer Concert as a diversion, the team
      makes away with a truck load of canisters of
      Protoculture-- fuel for their Robotech mecha.  
      One night, Rook returns to her home town to settle a
      dispute which has troubled her ever since she left.  
      Unknowingly to her, Rand is curious and follows.  
      She has a showdown with the leader of the Red Snakes
      who has harassed the town ever since her ex-
      boyfriend, Romy, had disbanded the Blue Angels.  
      The team approaches Roca Negra.  Lunk tries to
      fulfill a promise to a friend by returning a book to
      his father, Alfred Nader, an intelligent man who
      spoke out against the Invid slavery, was killed by
      the townspeople in fear of him endangering the town.  
      The team encounters Colonel Wolff and his anti-Invid
      underground.  For months, Wolff has been giving
      Robotech soldiers to the Invid in exchange for canisters
      of Protoculture and the possible release of his wife and
      son from imprisonment by the Invid.  Realizing his grave
      mistake in his actions, Wolff, in Scott's VT, aids
      the team in a short skirmish with the Invid and is
      mortally wounded.  Colonel Jonathan Wolff dies.  
      The Regis performs clonings in Genesis Pits(similar
      to those on Praxis) to acquire the ultimate form her
      Invid should take for their new life on Earth.  
   
      Scott, Rand, and Annie, while on a scouting mission,
      discover one of the Regis's Genesis Pits.  During an
      earthquake, the Genesis Pit is destroyed with all
      the life forms evolved in it.  
      The simulagent Ariel(cloned from a female human
      body found in a wreckage of the Mars Division
      flagship) is birthed and is planted in the route
      Scott's team is heading.  
      The team approach Point K, a rendezvous for all
      surviving units of Scott's invasion force,
      consisting of close to a thousand veritechs, ground
      units, assault mecha, supplies, and ammunition.  But
      instead of finding a base, they find a graveyard of
      ships.  The Invid had already obliterated all forces
      at Point K.  The team enters the area in search for
      ordinance but Scott goes in to seclusion.  Rand and
      Rook scout the area and finds Ariel at a nearby
      town.  Ariel, similar to a newborn child, has not
      learned to speak.  Rand and Rook assumes her to be
      in shock.  Lunk and Lancer discover two operational
      Alpha fighters and one intact Beta fighter among the
      wreckage.  The group comes together to report their
      findings and Ariel is given the name Marlene by
      Scott for she is in the likeness of his deceased
      fiancee, Marlene Rush.  
      The team approaches a mountain range and is quickly
      warned by the nearby town, Deguello, that the ranges
      are constantly patrolled by the Invid fortress built
      there.  A map of the secret routes to pass through
      the patrols were sold, but through Lancer's old time
      girlfriend, Carla, she reveals to him that the maps
      are fake and the citizens who buy and follow the map
      were going to their dooms.  
      Rand and Annie volunteer and successfully deactivate
      the Invid Brain to prevent the detection of incoming
      Robotech mecha. The Brain and the fortress is destroyed
      nearly trapping Scott and his veritech inside.
      The Regis loses contact with the simulagent Ariel in
      result of interacting with humans and their emotions.  
      Rand, caught in a sandstorm, inhales pollen from the
      Flower of Life and learns of the real reason why the
      Regis is on Earth.  
      The team enters a jungle forest region once controlled by
      the Zentraedi during the Malcontent Uprisings.  Micronian
      slaves were used then and the inhabitants now have been
      reduced to primitive levels.  Lancer, mistaken as a
      woman, is kidnapped.  

The team rescues Lancer and rids the valley of Invid

      Shock Troopers.  They make rafts to go down stream
      past an Invid hive but Annie stays behind as a
      jungle queen.  
      Scott's team enters an old abandoned city but are
      followed by the Invid.  After taking refuge in an
      old subway, the Invid caves in the subway exits in
      hopes of burying the Robotech rebels.  Upon escaping,
      Annie rejoins the team.  
   
      Prince Corg and Princess Sera are transmutated to
      human form and are ordered to go out and seek the
      simulagent Ariel for the cause of her disfunction.  
      The team finds a few left over naval ships from the
      Second Robotech War to cross the Gulf of Mexico.  They
      set a trap for the Invid patrols and Rook is wounded in
      the battle.  
      The team takes a rest at a once beautiful beach
      resort.  Lancer has a run in with the Invid Princess
      Sera and reports to Scott that the Invid are using
      human pilots for their mecha.  Sera is disturbed by
      her first encounter with the human emotions in her
      created by Lancer.  
      Scott is taught how to swim by Rand and Annie
      Sera prepares an ambush for the rebels in a high
      mountain-pass near Baja California.  Upon seeing
      Lancer's face, Sera hesitates a moment too soon to
      give the order to fire and the rebels escape.   Sera
      encounters Ariel for the first time.  
      The Jupiter Attack Wing of the REF folds for Earth
      Scott's team encounters one of the ships and its
      crew from Major Carpenter's defeated fleet from
      Tirol.  The ship and crew boldly sacrifice them-
      selves in destroying an Invid hive.  All crew are
      presumed dead.  
 
      The team enters the Rocky Mountains and finds the
      city of Denver(but really a secret underground shelter
      named Delta Six) buried beneath the ice.  
      They resupply and explore the city.  Scott and
      Marlene fall in love.  While he searches for the
      rebels, Corg discovers them in the city and attacks.  
      The team successfully escapes and self-destructs the
      power center in the city and buries the city once
      again.  Corg encounters Ariel for the first time.  
      The team holds a surprise birthday party for Annie.  
      The team runs into Dusty Ayres, a human specimen the
      Invid used to experiment on, replacing his entire
      right side with Protoculture-generated organs
      without the use of any anesthetics, while his
      friends stood by and watched.  He wages war on all
      Robotech soldiers and Scott rounds up a posse to
      hunt for him until the Invid attacks.  With some
      encouragement from Rook, Dusty aids Scott in the
      battle and is killed.  
      The liberation of the city of Mannattan (formerly
      New York City).  Sera encounters Ariel again and
      asks her why she hasn't reported to the Regis.  
      Ariel is ignorant to the fact that she is an Invid.  

2035 The Jupiter attack wing arrives in Earthspace and is

      defeated.  Photojournalist Sue Graham updates Scott
      and his team on the present situation of the REF
      main fleet.  Shadow Fighters are introduced.  The
      Synchro cannon(adapted by Dr. Nichols) is destroyed. 
      Graham sees an Invid with the body of a human.  Marlene
      and the rebel team discovers she is an Invid.  Sue Graham
      dies.  
      The REF main-fleet ships(Saturn and Neptune Groups)
      are folded from Tirol to Earth under the command of
      General Reinhardt.  The attack against Reflex Point
      commences in space and on ground.  Scott's team join
      forces with the ground troops and the Shadow Fighters 
      make up the main attack group in space.  
      Marlene leads Scott and his team in to the home hive
      to speak with the Regis.  
      Scott battles with Corg and is shot down.  Rand is
      also shot down by Corg and wounded.  Scott returns
      in a Beta fighter and kills Corg.  
      Upon seeing the REF defense lines crumbling, General
      Reinhardt orders the launch of the neutron "S"
      missiles.  Seeing this threat, the Regis and her children
      take leave of the planet in the form of a phoenix of
      mindstuff, annihilating the remaining orbiting REF ships
      and its crews in the process.  
   
      The SDF-3 fails to appear in Earthspace.  Rick turns
      40(or 45 in chronological years); Lisa turns 45(or
      50); Roy turns 5.  
      Upon falling in love with Lancer, Sera remains
      behind on Earth.  Marlene also remains behind.  
      End of the Third Robotech War.  
      During Yellow Dancer's final concert, Lancer reveals
      his true gender and identity.  
      Scott Bernard, in a salvaged Alpha-Beta fighter,
      leaves his past, his friends, and the Earth behind
      to return to Tirol to begin a search for the missing
      or lost SDF-3 battle fortress.  
      The Ark Angel and the remainder of the REF fold for
      Earth.
      The Ark Angel has been spared the fate of the rest
      of the main-fleet ships and positions itself in
      orbit above the recovering Southlands.  They meet up
      with Scott and he informs the Plenipotentiary
      Council on Tirol the results of the Third Robotech
      War and the SDF-3's failure to arrive.  
      Scott Bernard is promoted to the rank of colonel.  
      Various Protoculture-based Robotech mecha ceases to
      function all over the quadrant.  Transportation is
      reverted back to chemical resources, museum aircraft
      are put into use.  
      Scott Bernard and Vince and Jean Grant commence a
      search for the missing fortress aboard the Ark
      Angel.  
      On Haydon IV, Veidt and Exedore are present at the
      reawakening of the planet's Awareness.  Max and his
      family are also on-planet.  Cabell is on Tirol.  
   
      The great god Haydon returns to Haydon IV.  Haydon
      IV leaves its planetary orbit, all inhabitants are
      forced into below-surfaced chambers and are guarded
      by Haydonites.  The long awaited "Event"(a cosmic
      event that will alter the fabric of spacetime) has
      commenced its beginning programmed into the planets
      AI awareness eons ago.  Exedore and Veidt hypothesizes
      that somehow, the universe is shrinking.  
      The Karbarran fleet's command ship N'trpriz,
      attempting to rescue those imprisoned below the
      surface of Haydon IV, is obliterated by its own
      self-destruct sequence armed by the planet's
      Awareness.  
      Haydon IV executes a hyperspace fold to the Ranaath
      system, a black hole system and the receiving end of
      the energy pulse that accompanied the Invid
      departure.  
   
      General Vince Grant and Dr. Louie Nichols hopes to
      find the SDF-3 at the same place the Invid Regis
      fled to after her phoenix transformation and
      departure from Earth.  
      Ex-GMP Lieutenant Nova Satori leads the Homunculi
      Movement on Earth.  
      Scott returns to Earth in search of Marlene, hoping
      to find a clue of the whereabouts of the Invid
      Regis.  After a week of probing and asking, he finds
      Rand and one pregnant Rook in a pueblo near
      Trenchtown named Xochil, where Rand was writing his
      memoirs.  From there the trail leads to Roca Negra,
      where he finds Marlene with Lunk.  Annie had gone
      back to the jungle forest to live with Magruder.  
      Marlene explains that her sister Sera has a closer
      link with the Regis and should consult with her.  
      The Ark Angel successfully executes a trial fold
      jump to the far side of the moon and prepares to
      fold to Haydon IV where they hope to find a lead to
      the disappearance of the SDF-3.  
      Scott takes Marlene to New York(formerly named
      Mannatan) where Sera is with Lancer.  Sera
      prophesizes a little of the future to Ariel, then
      with her last breath, she dies and her body and
      spirit returns to be one with the Queen-Mother.  
      Scott and Marlene are escorted to Norristown where
      Marlene is taken to be interrogated.  
      Scott returns to the Ark Angel and with the Grants
      and council members, are informed by Dr. Nichols
      that the reason for the breakdown of mecha is that
      all 1st generation Protoculture from Zor's original
      matrix in the SDF-1 and those created by the Regis
      on Earth cease to function after the leaving of the
      Regis.  They realized that the fold and drive systems
      aboard the SDF-3 were from Breetai's original flagship,
      and the battle fortress was taken with the Regis as soon
      as she left Earth.  Also that Robotechnology is coming to
      an end and humans and all living creatures must now shape
      their own destinies, one they will fashion by themselves
      and not by Protoculture.  
      Scott is reunited with Marlene and is ordered to try
      to help her re-establish link with the Regis.  
      The Ark Angel arrives at the vicinity of Haydon IV
      but the planet is no longer there.  After picking up
      the survivors of the command ship N'trpriz, the ship
      then folds to Tirol to inform the Plenipotentiary
      Council of their findings.  All trails lead to the
      Ranaath system and preparations are made for the
      jump to the black hole system.  Karbarra declares
      war on Haydon IV.  
      Haydon IV defolds in orbit around the sixth planet
      in the Ranaath system and begins collecting
      radiation bleeds from the black hole.  
   
      Haydon IV reconfigures to begin production on ships
      to follow the trail of the Regis.  

Newspace: The arrival of the SDF-3 in Newspace-a universe of

        non-space fashioned by the Shapings of Protoculture
        and the Regis.  Similar to the uniqueness of the
        SDF-1's fold drives which captures a quantum of
        hyperspace and conveys it into a world of time, the
        SDF-3 captured a quantum of time and had taken it
        into hyperspace.  Newspace is outside the province
        of space and time.  The SDF-3's fold drives have
        also disappeared, just as it had happened to the
        SDF-1 after its maiden fold.  
        A series of experiments and extra-vehicular
        expeditions are made to test the conditions of the
        surrounding "space".  Captain Jack Baker is the
        first to make the excursion.  Rem enlightens the
        crew of SDF-3 that "newspace" is a universe in the
        making.  
        Retired 15th ATAC Corporal Bowie Grant is onboard
        with the Muses.  They struggle to replace the dead
        triumverate sister with synthesizers and samplers to
        recreate the spell-binding music the sisters once
        played aboard the Masters' flagship.  Minmei resumes
        her singing once again to try to reawaken Rem's
        memories of Zor.  
        Combined with the former members of the 15th ATAC's
        of the Southern Cross, Captains Jack Baker and Marie
        Crystal lead two squadrons of Veritechs.  Among them
        are:  Captain Sean Phillips, Sergeant Angelo Dante(he
        refused his commission), and Captain Karen Penn), to
        intercept the incoming "multiple bogeys of tentacles
        with no source" reaching out towards the SDF-3.
        Fighters that intercepted with the tentacles disappear,
        and are presumed missing.  Vital parts of the ship's
        reflex drive systemry disappear after the attack.  

2037 The Ark Angel folds to Karbarra to try to sway them

      from declaring war on Haydon IV before they are
      informed of the situation on the planet.  
      Cabell informs everybody on the genesis of Haydon
      and his contribution to the evolution of the Invid,
      Karbarrans, Perytons, Spherisians, Garudans,
      Praxians, and all Local Group races.  Upon the
      mating of the Invid and protoculture and their
      transmutation(the Event), Haydon's race would come
      out of suspended animation, hook on to the tail of
      the Invid phoenix and follow them into another
      dimension.  
      The Ark Angel defolds in the Ranaath system and sees
      Haydon IV reconfigured and joined to a planet mining
      metals for the ships the planet is manufacturing.  
      Louie Nichols' cyber-team links with the planet's
      awareness to find the course plot for the ships so
      the Ark Angel can arrive ahead of Haydon's ships.  
   
      Communications with Exedore and the Sterlings are
      established.  
      With a false denouncement of love from Scott,
      Marlene has a seizure and confirms that the Regis is
      in the collapsed Ranaath's star.  
      In learning of the whereabouts of the SDF-3,
      preparations are made to hijack one of Haydon's
      newly built ships after the planet's Awareness has
      programmed the coordinates and course plot into the
      automatic computers for the ships to follow the path
      of the Invid into the black hole.  
      The Karbarran fleet arrives at Ranaath's star and
      begins to engage Haydon IV with their fighters.  
      Dana Sterling leads a rebellion against the planet's
      Awareness to free its prisoners.  
      Colonel Scott Bernard leads the mission to hijack
      Haydon's prototype ship.  Louie and his cyber-team are
      infiltrated into the planet's AI, trying to give
      clearance to Scott's team to take the ship without Haydon
      knowing it, and also hoping to throw the planet's
      Awareness into disarray by the coordinated multiple
      attacks.  
      The Ark Angel deploys shuttles to Haydon IV to pick
      up the hostages, including Exedore, Veidt, and the
      Sterlings.  
      Scott(with the help of Louie and his cyber-team)
      successfully hijack a Haydonite ship (christened the
      Peter Pan) and the Ark Angel ferries supplies and
      crew (including the Grants, Karen's father Doctor
      Penn, Marlene, Louie and his cyber-team, and the
      Sterlings) to the ship.  Upon completion, the ship
      continues its programming and embarks for the voyage
      into the black hole.  
      Exedore and Cabell discover a new found matter in
      the universe, anti-protoculture.  
      The Robotech Elders provide Haydon with the location
      of new found protoculture on New Praxis in exchange
      for rulership of the Local Group planets.  Haydon
      agrees but sees their planned betrayal to him and
      Haydon IV folds to New Praxis.  

Newspace: The SDF-3 encounters a planet Dr. Lang has fashioned.

        The ship plots a course for the newly formed planet.  
        Lisa Hayes is puzzled by the strange actions of Roy
        (5 years old before Newspace) and the other children
        taken along on the SDF-3.  
        Rem has periodic flashes of his progenitor's life,
        the seeding and experimenting with the Flower of
        Life, while Minmei continues to sing with Bowie and
        the Muses.  
        The SDF-3 arrives in orbit around the planet(dubbed
        Omphalos).  Rick accompanies the landing party to
        survey the planet.  
        Minmei informs Lisa that she is carrying Rem's child
        Angelo and Gnea disappear from the scout team.  
        Kazianna Hesh leads a formation of Quadranos and
        battlepods down to the planet to aid the scout team
        in search of the missing members.  Roy, Drannin, and
        their peers form a circle in their nursery and begin
        chanting "Aurora".
        Angelo and Gnea reappear after meeting with the
        Invid Regis, and tells the scout team that the Regis
        has the fold systems and that the known universe is
        coming to an end.  Rick is recalled to the SDF-3
        because the children were in contact with Aurora.  
   

Rspace: Haydon IV arrives at New Praxis and commands the

      Praxians to bring all of the Flowers of Life to him.  
      Aboard the Peter Pan, Marlene regains consciousness
      and Aurora is summoned to the SDF-3.  Aurora informs
      the children of the SDF-3 that help is on the way.  
      On Tirol, Exedore and Cabell meet with Local Group
      captains to plan the attack on Haydon IV now orbiting New
      Praxis.  
      Haydon IV completes transferring of 2nd generation
      Protoculture from the planet.  The Local Group fleet
      arrives with the Tracialle and Valivarre leading the
      attack.  While the fleet closes in on Haydon IV, the
      planet transforms into battle mode-similar to the
      transformation of the SDF-1.  
      The Tracialle is destroyed taking Haydon IV with it,
      but Haydon had launched fighters and the planet's
      Awareness speeds towards Tirol to seize the
      protoculture matrix developed by Rem.  
      Exedore and Cabell struggle to coordinate the
      evacuation of Tirol to underground shelters.  
      Tiresia is destroyed as Haydon IV's awareness mates
      with the matrix.  All knowledge and data of anti-
      Protoculture is also destroyed.  
      The Regis and Haydon battle for supremacy.  The
      Haydonite ships, not built for direct entry, were
      destroyed upon Haydon's entry into Newspace.  

Newspace: Rick, Lisa, Kazianna, and the parents of the children

         arrive in the nursery where they finally come out of
         their trance, informing the parents that help is on 
         the way in the form of Aurora and the others.  
         Upon debriefing Angelo and Gnea, the SDF-3 realizes
         that all creation from Protoculture will cease to
         exist and that the Regis wishes to return to a pre-
         Zor state of existence.  
         Arrival of Peter Pan with Aurora guiding the ship
         towards the SDF-3.  The crew of the original RDF are
         reunited once again.  
  
         At the urgings of Rem and the children, a party was
         formed to returned to Omphalos to try to communicate
         with the Regis.  A patrol of Alphas had discovered
         an Invid hive and the party is shuttled down near
         the hive.  The party includes the Hunters,
         Sterlings, Grants, Kazianna and Drannin, Rem and
         Minmei, Dr. Nichols and his cyber-team, Dr. Lang,
         Scott and Marlene, Angelo and Gnea, Baldan, and
         Learna.  The party meets with the Regis and is
         informed of her ultimatum.  
         Max wins in combat with a black mecha fashioned by
         the Regis from Dana's dark side of her feelings of
         her parents leaving her behind on Earth.  
         After Max's battle, the party returns to the SDF-3
         and Dr. Lang and Dr. Nichols are placed in custody,
         but escape aboard the fortress.  
         The Regis and Haydon battle for supremacy.  
         Dr. Lang joins in one with the shapings of
         Protoculture with Dr. Nichols as the last person to
         see Dr. Lang ever again.  
         Upon returning to the SDF-3, the party rushes to the
         engine room in hope of that the SDF-3 children can
         somehow bring the fold system back to fold out of
         Newspace while the Regis is preoccupied.  With the
         help of Aurora and the voice of Minmei, the SDF-3
         children teleport the original fold system of the
         SDF-1 from the Regis's domain and is quickly hooked
         up to the SDF-3 systemry.  
         The SDF-3 executes a fold to realspace.  At the door
         between realspace and Newspace, the Regis and Haydon
         clash head-on(the Intersection, the end of the
         Shapings).  Both deities at once knew the true meaning
         of humbleness and precedented sensations of peace and
         acceptance.  The Regis takes the phoenix form again
         and takes flight one final time.  
         All throughout the SDF-3, the crew looks across space
         and time, and of places and people of the past.  
         Kazianna has visions of Breetai.  Drannin sees his
         father for the first time; Lisa has visions of her
         long lost love, Karl Riber, including visions of
         Claudia Grant, the bridge crew, and Captain Gloval;
         Rick has visions of Ben Dixon, Claudia Grant, his
         father's old flying circus, Roy Fokker and himself
         growing up while Roy II watches from Rick's arms;
         Dana has visions of her three godfathers on Earth
         and Zor's tormented life, and understood; Bowie has
         visions of his old friend Rolf Emerson; Scott has
         visions of both Marlene and Ariel intertwined;
         Ariel/Marlene has timescenes of the original Marlene's
         life and of her own race's struggle to survive on
         Optera; And Minmei has visions of her cousin Kyle, her
         parents, her lover Johnathan Wolff, and her
         song/soulmate, Janice.  
         After the Intersection, Haydon reaches out into the
         SDF-3(still in foldspace) and finds what he is
         looking for.  Rem and Minmei vanishes from the ship
         and are presumed missing.  The missing members of
         the Red and Blue Veritech squadrons are returned to
         the SDF-3.  

2038 The return of the Ark Angel to Earth, new technology

      from the ship helps rebuild the planet.  Water and
      ice are brought from off-world to replace the
      contaminated water on Earth.  Starships are built
      with new designs and the Local Group worlds help in
      putting Earth back on her feet.  They are unaware of
      the outcome of the Intersection and the crew of the
      SDF-3 are presumed dead.  
      The eradication of the old Earth government, and the
      beginning of a benign, democratic, and participatory
      government.  
      The surviving Haydonites become the Interstellar

      to the Andromeda Galaxy to see if the Intersection
      had had any affect in that quadrant.  The starship
      will be commanded by none other than Admiral Lisa
      Hayes-Hunter.  

Newspace: Two planets alone exists. One is the prison for the

        Robotech Elders.  The other, foliated by the Flowers of
        Life, their Pollinators, and where the SDF-3 fold drive
        lies, is inhabited by two humans, Rem and Minmei,
        awaiting the birth of their first child, and slowly
