(Mass) Prologue

Mass In 2065, Von Braun Aerospace unveiled the controversial physics defying Mass Drive, capable of warping and reducing the surrounding ship of its mass to absolute zero. Ships were capable of exceeding 1.5 times the speed of light. In 2070, Von Braun revealed the 2 nd generation of the Mass Drive, dubbed the Mark II Vittore Mass Drive after its original inventor. It utilizes solar energy stored as a method of powering the drive and the ship itself for long term space exploration. Expeditions were sent to determine habitability and colonization. In 10 standard years, Humanity has colonized the Moon, Mars, Ganymede, Io, Europa, Titan, Triton, Calisto, Phoebus and Deimos. In the future, plans to terraform Venus are being evaluated. 2077, Axom Industries created a powerful thinking computer under the name Durendal. Its purpose, to lead exploratory science vessels across the depths of deep space. It was this year the Mark III Vittore Mass Drive was unveiled. Durendal was s...

(NDI Article) Rift

Anomaly Class: Lunar Item: L-325 Threat Level: Yellow Containment Procedures: A perimeter has been established around L-325 to prevent civilians from trespassing in the area. Outpost-12 has been established to ensure safe containment of the anomaly in addition to the construction of an induction tower. The project was proposed to and received approval from the A-9 Council. Based on Nikola Tesla’s Wardenclyffe designs, they are to draw energy from L-325 to store and utilize for future use. Biological and organic matter are not allowed within a 3(m) of the anomaly. Description: L-325 is a class-1 dimensional rift capable of drawing energy in the form of electromagnetic force. Energy drawn from L-325 originates from this other dimension. Observational studies indicate that the energy is free-flowing into our dimension and dissipating. L-325 was originally discovered in [REDACTED] Russia on June, 1939 where Site-32 received reports of energy surges from recon operat...

(Mass ARG) Ghost in a machine: Axom Industries’ revolutionary AI

Global News One, GNO: October 23 rdm 2077      Axom Industries is an American research and development organization that first started out in 2035, diving into the field of robotics and computers that would propel the USA into a new golden age. Many of its employees were comprised of former hackers and programmers that placed America ahead of Japan in robotics. The first series they’ve developed were service drones with built in knowledge of structural blueprints, architectural and vehicular schematics, able to construct and repair with accurate precision. They’ve become a great assistance to engineers and construction workers but were mainly designed for hazard work. Then came Arch Net; an incredibly advanced artificial intelligence that created a sophisticated web protection system. This system eliminated any and all possibility of hacker and virus attacks on the unsuspecting public, including unauthorized access to valuable data and sensitive information...

(Mass ARG) Twelve Dead in a shootout at Von Braun Aerospace

Twelve Dead in a Shootout at Von Braun Aerospace Global News One, GNO: September 23 rd , 2065     It was a regular September morning in the Von Braun Aerospace Headquarters. CEO Joseph Charon, founder of the corporation, was about to unveil another of the company’s rigorous breakthrough in Interstellar travel that afternoon. However, tragedy struck at the heart of the renowned research division when former project manager Nicholas Vittore appeared one morning with an assault rifle and proceeded to kill several of his colleagues, including his ex-wife Trisha Clement. Nicholas then committed suicide shortly after police arrived. The description of the event could only be described as ‘heart wrenching’ for the victim’s families, including that of Vittore’s. Even business colleagues who knew both the victims and Vittore were still shaken up and grief stricken by the incident. One of the survivors of the attack had this to say: ‘It didn’t make any sense. I have no...

(NDI) A message from The Director

--------------------------------------------------------------------  New Dawn Initiative wishes to extend its gratitude to the fine young men and women who helped build and manage this ever growing organization. While the dawn is not over the horizon yet, we will prepare for when the day comes. Our future, and humanity's future, relies solely upon our knowledge and understanding of the unknown. With that knowledge, our goal is to exploit the uses that some may represent for the future, and contain those that are capable of causing great harm. Surely not all anomalies we've encountered over the years have expressed dangerous properties. But they must remain in confinement. As such, any and all knowledge of their existence must remain incognito. We cannot expect humanity to react in accordance with the Initiative, especially when said reactions revert to a state of aggression, panic, fear and danger without understanding. In this day and age, humanity is highly...

(NDI Story)Harrowing

           Here;s a short story. I had plotted this out for future works of fiction based around this theme. Mainly inspired by SCP Foundation. Though I had planned to explore more opportunities, especially implementing ARGs in the future. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- June 27 th , 1946.  Jan met the morning like he met every other day; with two pills of Tylenol and a nice large serving of coffee. Though his acquaintances urged him to cut back on the drugs, he merely brushed them off with little care of their concern.  The month has not been easy on him and the expedition needed his undivided attention. From five in the morning to midnight with no one to take his shift. Several people up and left, all over rumors of a disturbance in one of the ruined towns. The wild animals probably spooked them. Since the war, most of the towns in the region during...
