First Contact - Iason Engagement - 2629
The Terran Knowledge Bank
Iason encounters a spacecraft of unknown origin. Commander Jedora Andropolos on board Iason transmits a wide-band, non-verbal greeting and waits for a response. Less than twenty minutes later, the still-unidentified ship opens fire with full lasers, completely destroying Iason and its crew. Although the identity of the attacking ship is never definitively established, Confederation space tracking computers point to a possible point of origin from a previously unexplored planet, soon to be known by its native name, Kilrah.
