Lore:Earth
Earth is a terrestial planet in the Sol System, and is the birthplace of Humanity. The planet has one moon, Luna.
It is the birthplace of humanity, and it has a single moon known as the Moon or Luna.
In the 2100's the First Grav Drive and the circumstances that led to its development would lead to the downfall of the planet.
Humanity found one of the Artifacts during an expedition to Mars. Upon touching it, Doctor Victor Aiza experienced 12 days of lost time, during which, he met a version of himself from another universe and learned the secrets behind Grav Drives. Doctor Aiza knew exactly what would happen when he began working on the Grav Drive, yet chose to go ahead with the project anyway for science and the greater good, since he believed that sacrificing earth to gain access to the many planets in space was worth it, something in the end he wasn't fully sure on..
Over time, Aiza's Grav Drive prototype caused Earth's atmosphere to sputter away, which made the planet uninhabitable and forced humanity to abandon the planet. In 2150 Humans discovered that Earth’s magnetosphere would collapse in the next fifty years, resulting in the end of life on the planet. This mass exodus took place between the years 2149 and 2199, with billions of people left behind to die.
In 2203, Earth officially became uninhabitable. By 2330, Earth has been largely abandoned.
