 ===Important Events===
-*Delta Serpentis is currently the only system in known space that contains a jump node to Earth. In 2335, this jump node was destabilised by the explosion of the Shivan Superdestroyer Lucifer inside the jump corridor. Since then, Delta Serpentis has become the capital for the surviving Terran community, and should a Terran Knossos ever be constructed, this would be the best place to start.
+*March 2335:  The destruction of the ''[[SD Lucifer|Lucifer]]'' whilst it is in subspace destabilizes the jump node to [[Sol]], cutting off all communication with the [[Terrans|Terran]] homeworld.
+*2335:  Delta Serpentis becomes the new capital for the remainder of the [[Galactic Terran Alliance]].  Contact with Sol not re-established as of 2367.
