Timeline

  • Up to 2010: China embarks on a manned space program, putting several yuhangyuan (“space navigators”) into orbit and on the moon. The first human clone is born. The United States commits to a Mars mission.
  • 2011: Sales of new wearable computers (using a visor display and belt computer) exceed those of desktop or notebook systems. The Terrestrial Planet Finder (TPF) space infrared interferometer begin scanning stars within 50 light years.
  • 2012: North and South Korea set date for reunification.
  • 2013: TPF discovers an Earth-like planet orbiting the G5 yellow dwarf star 61 Virginis, 27.8 light years away. It is named “Virginia.” Later, more advanced sensors locate other habitable worlds around farther stars.
  • 2014: U.S. space development firm Columbia Aerospace begins operating a reliable laserlaunch service for commercial microsatellites.
  • 2015: Russia joins manned Mars program. Antibiotic-resistant pneumonia pandemic kills 7 million worldwide. Revised Outer Space Treaty is drafted, making it easier for corporations or states to lay claim to extraterrestrial resources.
  • 2016: South African conglomerate Ithemba Biotechnologies distributes a cheap broad-spectrum AIDS vaccine in Africa. China and Taiwan negotiate date for peaceful reunification. China announces its own Mars program.
  • 2017: The brown dwarf Xiang-63 is discovered. Parallax measurement reveals it is quite close to Sol, less than a light-year away.
  • 2018: The Long March VI rocket lofts China’s first space lab module into orbit. European Union increases fusion power budget. Biotech Euphrates is founded, with a then-radical commitment to human gengineering.
  • 2019: The commercial Aristaeus mission lands several thousand tiny robots on Mars, for both science and teletourism. A separatist party forms in western Canada, believing their destiny lies with Asia-Pacific.
  • 2020: Most cars use hybrid gas-electric or fuel cell engines. The genetic testing of unborn children and use of genetic engineering to “genefix” monogenetic hereditary defects is common in affluent nations. China lands robots on Mars and Phobos.
