Nano-electronics:



        Once mankind had developed silicon-based electronic components,
a race began to put more and more devices on a single piece of
silicon.  By the time mankind reached into colonization of the
galaxy, .05 micron technology had been achieved. Soon after,
a growing movement to manipulate the actual molecules to form 
transistors and other discrete devices rapidly came to the forefront of
technology. 
        Nano-technology allows massive amounts of electrical components
to be placed on a given piece of material (such as silicon). 
This allows for far more powerful computers and other logical
devices.
@
Phasors:

        Lasers had been available for a long time were fairly
ineffectual as weapons.  While lasers are intense coherent
streams of light, phasors are particle beams capable of
inflicting significant damage upon a given target.  The use of
phasors beyond the weapon area is limited. As a weapon, there
is no replacement for the power/cost ratio of the phasor.
@
Cold Fusion:

        Mankind had for years tried in vain to find a powerful source
of energy like nuclear fission but one that avoided the waste
and damage problems of fission.  Using hydrogen atoms, mass energies 
can be produced by creating a fusion reaction.  Earth's star, Sol, 
is a natural fusion reactor.
        With this new breakthrough, virtually unlimited amounts of
energy can be supplied to a system.  Such large amounts of energy
will help us develop new propulsion systems and lead to yet greater
energy conversion developments in the future.  



@
Photons:



        Photons are actually the discrete element of light waves.
However, mankind has found a way to produce useful side effects
of photons by encasing them in specialized containers.  A new
way of packaging photons is by placing them into small oval-shaped
capsules called "photon torpedoes".  The birth of photon torpedoes
gives the human race a potent weapon to defend itself against hostile
alien civilizations.
@
Deflectors:



        With physical missile devices becoming obsolete with the
invention of high powered energy weapons such as photons and
phasors, a method of protection is needed to keep ships from
being mauled by energy weapons.  Deflectors use highly variable
frequency waves to shift the direction of these energy weapons
by a few degrees, hence limiting their damage. 
@
Nano-Frequences:



        When mankind began to explore the galaxy, the free frequencies
left to send information was already alarmingly low.  In just 3
centuries, mankind managed to use up nearly all of the known
frequencies, making new means of communication and information
exchange more difficult.  Thanks to powerful electromagnetic
based computer systems, an entire new spectrum of frequencies
have been discovered.  These waves, whose wavelengths are far shorter
than even X-rays, have been dubbed "Nano-Frequencies".
@
Brainwave Mapping:



        For years mankind has tried to figure out exactly what the
brain does.  Now, humans have come to understand what every
portion of the brain does and how to deal with different
chemical and electrical changes that occur in it.  This
allows for far reaching genetic and medical improvements.
        Moreover, brainwave mapping allows us to be able to design
more powerful and vastly more sophisticated computer systems.
@
Universal translator:


        Our scientists have been working long and hard on some
means of communicating with the alien lifeforms that apparently
exist in this unknown galaxy.  The subspace signals we have
been receiving have been growing and there is no doubt now that
they are aware of us.  The government has made communication
with these unknown civilizations a top priority.

        However, it became clear early on that it would be impossible
to learn certain languages even if we had alien specimens available
to learn from.  The "Universal Translator" assumes that all alien
beings that we will encounter have some sort of central brain
structure.  The translator scans the brain and translates what 
they are saying into our language.  While it is still quite primitive, 
it has a huge data base from which it can add to and learn from as more 
communication with aliens arrives.  

Critics contend that the basic assumptions for this
device are too risky.  For example, Dr. Valeaz, from the
Partners Research Center in New Dallas believes that terrans
may be unique in having a central brain structure.
        "It is arrogant presumption to assume all intelligent
creatures store all their 'eggs' in one basket." Dr. Valeaz said.
        "For example, they may have their intelligence distributed
throughout their body and not just in a certain area.  Moreover, 
we can't assume that these beings are even humanoid.  If these aliens
are vastly different from us then this device will be useless.  The
odds of them being humanoid are pretty slim."
        With the Universal Translator the various fledgling
companies that were on board the Santa Maria are already
preparing to set up intergalactic trading once more technology
in the area of Trade is discovered.  The Universal Translator is
also our best hope in having any sort of diplomacy with any
alien civilizations we encounter...
@
Nano Metal Composition:



        While any blast furnace engineer could tell you how
excellent grade metals are made,  no way of discretely
manipulating the exact molecules of a given metal has been possible. 
With the invention of Nano-Metal Composition, mankind can now
create metals of extreme durability which are incredibly light.
        This will allow our engineers to develop extremely dense
metals for stronger ships and far larger structures than
mankind has ever had before.
        One wonders, has our home planet, Earth, made such fantastic
discoveries too?



@
Tri-Strontium Alloys:



        The offspring of Nano-Metal Composition.  These metals can
withstand incredible pressure and heat while weighing only
1/100th the weight of normal steel.  These allow the building of
incredibly large systems and structures at a minimum cost.



@
High Density Metals:



        High density metals allow the building of various alloys of
great strength produced with little labor and cost.



@
Large Scale Building:



        Thanks to the development of incredible grades of metals, large
structures have begun to be built.  Large scale building relies
heavily on excellent engineering and advanced materials.
 
        Advanced engineering allows for Large Scale Building which can
produce structures of immense size and complexity.



@
Terra Computers:



        The first wave of the powerful computer systems will
supply your star system with all the computing they should need.
        The Terra Computers are capable of computing Several Trillion
instructions every millisecond.



@
Hyper Computers:



        The second wave of the powerful computer systems.  These super
computers are capable of computing Several Trillion instructions
every micro second.





@
Omni Computers:



        The greatest and last of the great computer systems.  With the
development of these incredible computers, mankind will begin to
move away from gigantic computers and begin to integrating
computer intelligence into the very organics of life.  In
essence the environment will have near infinite computing
potential.  The Omni computers are capable of handling many
trillions of instructions every picosecond.



@
Galactic Diplomacy:



        With the invention of Universal Translations, our
anthropologists and sociologists have gone into overdrive to learn
all they could about all known  alien races.  As we learn about
new races, immediate diplomatic relations will be possible.

        Galactic Diplomacy allows for:

        - Treaties with Alien Races

        - Alliances with Alien Races. (Once you reach that level of
                diplomacy called Alliances)

        Note though, when an alliance treaty is signed, you are bound
by it.  To break an Alliance treaty means to go to war with the
person you are allied to.  Moreover, when a race you are allied
to goes to war, you are obligated to be at war with the race
that your ally is at war against.

	Through Diplomacy, a wide range of subjects can be discussed
from the GIA control center.

@
Galactic Trade:



        Galactic Trade will greatly help your systems.  With the
development of trade, you can send freighters to different
systems to create permanent trade routes.  Both races benefit
equally from trade routes.  

        Keep in mind though, during times of war, trade routes to
enemies are disrupted.



@
Alliances:



        This is the most advanced form of diplomacy.  At this level,
you can actually ally yourself with other races.  Bear in mind
though, that when an ally goes to war, you go to war.  Alliances
can only be ended by declaring war on your ally!



@
Star Democracy:



        Star Democracy is a significant governmental change for an
intergalactic civilization such as ours.  A lot of imperial limits on
trade are lifted in this form of government along with increased
commerce within a star system.  All in all, it is a superior form
of government compared to the older imperial system that we started
with.  However, critics of this proposed form of government have
brought up a significant problem with the system:
        "What if the people are unhappy?  They now have the
option of leaving the civilization and being independent.  In a
totally unknown galaxy filled with alien civilizations, some of
which are bound to be hostile, can we afford to just let star systems
break free and be independent?  What will the military do if they do
riot and break away?" said Dr. Brown of the Orioz center of political
studies.
        The leaders of our civilization will simply have to weigh the
pros and cons and hopefully make the best decision.

@
Star Federation:

        Star Democracy brought us limited independence for star
systems.  However the central government was still by far the
controlling hand in internal affairs.  The newly proposed Star
Federation form of government sets things up where each star system
is equal.  This encourages people to freely mingle from one star system
to another without worrying about that particular star system's standing.
The approval rating is no longer the most important factor in determining
how well a planet does economically. 
        Professor Matthew O'brien of the Arkor University criticizes
the new system:
        "The government now has the task to keep the people happy
be continuing the addition of expensive social programs.  Since the
population of a particular planet is no longer dependent on their happiness,
it is a lot more likely that they will get unhappy.  If they get unhappy
enough, they may rebel and the government loses entire star systems."
        Of course, the added benefits of a Federation of planets over
just a Democratic central government are significant.



@
Turbo Phasors:



        These are the same as phasors but with improved technology to
make them pack a greater punch.



@
Mega Phasors:



        These are very high powered phasors capable of mass destruction.



@
Instant Communication:



        You can now communicate with anyone, anywhere, any time.  As
long as you are aware of something's existence, you can
communicate with them.  






@
1D Phasing:



        A peculiar technology developed in a lab.  It allows energy to
be enveloped around real space in a limited way.  



@
2D Phasing:



        This advancing technology appears interesting but no use has
been found yet.  In limited real world environments, energies
can be shifted out of real space and envelope small objects.


@
3D Phasing:



        Uses for this technology are rapidly being found.  Energies and
matter are now able to be enveloped about other objects in and
out of real space.  This lends itself to the possible creation
of your own worm holes and the possibility of other dimensions.



@
Impulse Drive



        Once Cold Fusion became a reality, new types of drives to send
star ships into deep space become possible. While Micro Impulse was used
to power the USS Santa Maria (the original Colony Wagon), it only allowed
the given object to briefly fold the space fabric limiting its apparent
velocity.  Moreover, due to its nature, it had unfortunate side effects when
it came into contact with cosmic "strings" (as we already know).  Impulse
drive allows a starship to travel at a non-relativistic speed of 3 times
the speed of light by generating bursts of energy into the giga-joule range.
By doing so, the localized gravitational fields are warped slightly which
bends space in such a way that the distance to your destination is somewhat
less.


@
Organic Manipulation:



        For centuries mankind had tweaked the genes of fruits and
animals to provide superior sources of food and raw materials. 
Genetic Mapping completes mankind's understanding of genes. 
Every DNA strand is now understood.  What is done with this
understanding remains to be seen.



@
Genetic Mapping:

        23Chrom Inc. Today released its long in progress study of the human
DNA structure.  Several scientific bodies have been working for the past several
years to complete the mapping of the DNA molecule.  When the Santa Maria
arrived, roughly 70% of the DNA strands purposes were known but without the
available equipment that was on Earth, continuing its research was difficult.
With this discovery, doctors will be able to cure many lethal diseases for
unborn children.  Moreover, even adults who begin suffering various
problems can have those problems reduced dramatically with this technology.
        Dr. Meyar at 23Chrom Inc. hinted that this technology will be
essential as mankind spreads across this galaxy:
        "When you sprinkle people all over the galaxy in vastly different
environments, it is only natural that certain genes will die out and new
ones taking their place.  In essence, different environments will spawn
different types of humans -- over a long time.  With this new technology
we will be able to eventually keep people -- being people and not let
them mutate to new species over the next millennium."
        However, controversy has already raged all over the empire as
liberal groups have charged that this technology is nothing more than
a vehicle for creating a "super race".  Either way, this technology is
here to stay...
@
Molecular Medicine:



        Mankind has moved to fixing genetic injuries and mutations with
a new form of medicine.  Molecular Medicine allows doctors to
change the DNA of damaged or defective cells to reproduce normal
cells.  Suffering is decreased immensely.



@
Transporters:



        Transporters or Teleporters allow personnel to be transferred
from one position to another with relative ease.  The drawback
of it is that it requires immense amounts of power to achieve.



@
Anti-Matter:



        While the existence of anti-matter has been known for a couple
centuries, being able to work with it was impossible until now. 
With specialized force fields and containers, anti-matter can be
used to create incredible bursts of power when combined with
"real" matter.



@
Warp Drive:



        Anti matter made possible to immense energies required to
envelope the fabric of space and fold it.  Folding real space
can allow a ship to travel great distances without actually
having to move at extreme velocities.  Folding space (or
warping) has many dire side effects but when used correctly
allows for interplanetary travel in short amounts of time.



@
Replication:



        Copying a person is called Cloning.  Copying a non-living
object is called Replication.  With replication, certain objects
can be copied.  For example, a ship can have on board simply
several blocks of any given matter (like rocks) and with a
replicatator, change that matter into whatever is desired (such
as food).

        While only capable of replicating things of lesser densities,
replication helps feed millions of lifeforms throughout the
galaxy (or will when used).



@
Artificial Life:



        This technology has been hotly contested since its inception.
Mankind can now create a new life form purely from engineering. 
Note, this is not cloning.  These life forms are as unique as
any other natural life form.  The difference is, their exact
characteristics were pre-determined by engineers, not random
natural processes.



@
4D Phasing:



        Mankind now is able to place objects completely outside of real
space.  Wormholes are definitely something we could (with
sufficient research) master.  The possibilities are endless!



@
Sensors:



        Centuries ago, radar allowed mankind to determine the position
of objects from a limited distance.  One could argue that radar
was really when mankind invented sensors since these new
advanced systems capable of detecting any sized object from
extreme distances is merely the evolution from that origin. 
However, this new break through is such a leap over the existing
tachion technologies that they are placed in a new class called
Sensors.

@
Battle Ship Technology 1:

        Strategic Defender Systems today introduced the new "Battleship"
class starship.  This starship is equipped with the latest deflector
technology (the recently developed shields) along with the powerful new
warp drive propulsion system.


@
Shields:



        Deflects merely changed the angle of an energy weapon.  Shields
downright discharge those energy weapons.  However, the key
difference is that deflectors don't get worn down and shields
do.  To do their magic, shields discharge themselves as much as
the weapon.  Against powerful weapons though, shields are a
must.  As long as the shields have some charge, the armor of the
ship is undamaged (unlike deflectors).



@
Planetary Defense:



        Alpha and Omega force fields about star systems greatly help
your star ships.  When your planets are attacked, your ships can
stay behind the force fields and fire out.  Incoming weapon
attacks are discharged somewhat which lessons the damage on your
fleets.



@
Cloaking:



        Cloaking allows for ships to move nearly undetected by sensors.
 It does not, contrary to the recent press, make ships
"Invisible".  Future Battle ships will be equipped with
cloaking.  Unlike most ships, when these new ships are
"discovered" by the enemy, their presence cannot be tracked once
they are beyond visual or heavy sensor range.



@
Drones:



        These are robotic devices capable of limited but cheap attacks
against enemy positions.



@
Artificial Satellite:



        While satellites are nothing new to us, having an artificial
moon is.  These gigantic space stations are capable of housing
millions of people if necessary.  Believe it or not, the power
necessary to maintain its artificial gravity is enough to shut
down the fusion reaction of a star.  It is believed by the
scientific community that it might be possible to build gigantic
space stations capable of moving through space on their own. 
The weapon potential is frightening.



@
Terraforming:



        As we have known for a long time, most planets are really not
good for having colonies on.  While we can already colonize
anywhere we want, we also know that choosing poor planets to
colonize has only welcomed failure.  Terraforming allows planets
of lesser quality to be colonized.  Let it be known, however,
that this does not mean that all planets are now good to be
colonized, it just means that we can colonize poor worlds more
successfully than before.

@
Antimatter Weapons:

        While antimatter has created a wondrous boon of power resources
available to mankind, it was only a matter of time before it was turned
into a weapon.  The national Antimatter Institute of New Boston has 
developed a weapon capable of incinerating 2/3's of the surface of a
given planet.  One wonders what will be next...

@
Hyperspace:



        Hyperspace is the same old folding space but done with a different
technique.  Warp Drive used brute force of having antimatter drives to
warp space to different degrees.  Hyperspace uses cosmic strings in an
eloquent way to bend space even further.  Our starships can now travel
further than ever before.	



@
Planetary Destruction



        We have known how to devastate planets for a long time.  Since
the nuclear age, we have been capable of laying waste an entire
planetary surface.  We have no advanced to the point of being
able to completely destroy a planet, leaving just some asteroids.



@
Solar Destruction:



        The easiest way of destroying a star is to simply stop its
fusion reaction.  In order to do this, a great deal of energy
must be directed at the core of a star.  We now can do this.



@
Artificial Planets:



        Creating a huge space ship is one thing, being able to create a
livable, organic planet is another.  We can now, in theory,
build our own organic planets.  The only thing stopping us from
populating the galaxy with these planets is the problem of
getting sufficient matter to build one.



@
Terror Star:



        This is a frightening technology.  If it fell into the wrong
hands, a catastrophe could occur.  These gigantic battle
stations are capable of directing a huge energy pulse at a
star's inner core.  When the pulse hits the core, it
de-activates the fusion reaction which destroys the star and all
the worlds within it.



@
Controlled Gravity:



        This is probably one of the greatest technologies we have ever
found.  One of the problems with space travel that is not
popularly known is that people don't do well in zero gravity. 
There are several problems with zero gravity:

        - People usually spend a couple days adjusting to it.  This
time period is usually spent in a bathroom.



        - Organic life forms do not adjust well to going back to a
planet with significant gravity after being in an environment
with no gravity.



        We can now put gravity on all our ships, thus allowing long
distant travel.
@
Spacial Rifts:



        With warp and phasing technologies, brief spacial rifts have
been achieved.  Many of our citizens believe that we will soon
be able to find our long lost home -- Earth.
@
Battle Ship Technology 2:

        Strategic Defender Systems continues its dominance of
the many military contractors with its latest addition to our
defensive capability.  The new "Dreadnought" class of battleships
has been taken out of prototype and into production.  This new
weapon is equipped with even more powerful photon torpedoes along
with the recently developed transporters.  Shuttles are no longer
needed to transfer from ship to surface.  The transporters teleport
someone to a target that is within 250,000 kilometers distance.



@
Battle Ship Technology 3:



        The Dreadnought class of battleships seems to be about to be
eclipsed with the new Ranger class star ship.  Recently
trademarked by Intergalactic Military Machines or (IMM), the
Ranger should help send a signal to all enemies that we mean
business!



@
A NEW Level of Battleship Technology!

Strategic Defense Systems has developed a new and improved
Battle ship class.

The new 'AVATAR' class is head and shoulders more powerful than
the previous types of battle ships.





        



@
Advanced Artificial Intelligence


        As the computers have increased, so has the demand for
powerful operating systems and interfaces.  Everyone can remember
the trend in the late 20th century when a company called MicroSoftware
Systems continually produced low quality operating systems that were
behind the hardware by several generations.  By the end of the century,
this trend had been ended by newer operating systems by other
companies and since then, public demand for advanced operating
environments has grown.  Galactic Business Machines has recently
unveiled OS/2000 v1.0, an advanced operating system that has
new Nano-kernal technology driving a powerful artificial intelligence
engine.  This operating system works with the user in a way that
vastly improves the operating environment they will work with.
        Such operating environments are likely to be the key in
developing advanced technologies in the future.


@
Battleship Technology 5:



New from Valiant Dyanamics.  The new Excalibur class of Battle ships
is beyond powerful.  They are cheap and powerful weapons.  Those that
would try to destroy us have a new reason to fear us!



@
Evolution Control:



        In the past couple centuries, our colonies have begun finding
minor but growing differences at the genetic level.  It has been
speculated that within a millennium, there could be significant
differences between one of our planet's citizens and another's (genetically).
To help alleviate this problem we have been able to control
Evolution-- to a degree.  While adapting to one's native environment is
important, certain random traits can be eliminated, slowing the
diverging evolutionary paths.  Each citizen will have the option to
use this program and keep their genetic line from diverging from
other humans on other colonies.
        For example, on the continent of Novaria (on one of our colonies),
the number of children being born without any body hair on the arms
and legs is 25% higher than anywhere else in our civilization.  Other
diverging differences include ear size, toe usability, nose size, etc.  While
some of these changes can be attributed to having a small gene pool
(a typical colony may start out with less than 50,000 colonists), the
environment is playing a key role.
        The original planners (long ago on Earth) never considered this to
be a major problem because it was believed that suitable worlds would be
so rare that the problem would not occur.  Our own Milky Way galaxy may
indeed be short on earth-like worlds, but this galaxy has no shortage which
makes this issue an important one.



@
Star Creation:



        We now have within our means to create a star!  GalactCorp has
recently released the plans of the StarGen Star Creation Device.
 This device, over a period of several years, will create a star
in a given area.  The only problem presently is that the amount
of energy required is so high that it would require enough mass
to wipe out several solar systems.
        It has been dismissed by the commercial industries as merely and
interesting, if not useful, technology.  Steven Chang of NovaCorp had
this to say:
        "Being able to create an entire star is indeed incredible but what
commercial use does that have?  Moreover, the types of stars that this
technology can create are fairly narrow.  You cannot, for example, create
a mid-sized yellow star, the type generally needed to sustain an earth like
planet.  Only tiny white dwarf type stars can be created which would be
useful only as interstellar litter."



@
Galactic Understanding:



        A series of new e-books has been released by Dr. Everett
Kidell.  These books explain in details many "secrets" of the
universe.  The scientific community, while skeptical, is in
general agreement over most of the books' points.
        The book has very little original material.  However, the key
to the success of the books is the way everything is put together.
An ancient earth book once believed that the answer to everything
was the number 42.  At the time, this was just humor.  Ironically,
according to the books the answer is just about that simple.  If you
want to know the answer to life, the universe, and everything then
you will have to purchase "The Answer Book" by Dr. Kidell.



@
4D Philosophy:



        While the discovery of a new dimension was made some time ago.
It is also known that we cannot travel to that dimension in our
current form.  Our spacial structure is radically different. 
The well known think tank in the city of Tel Levi has come up
with a startling and revolutionary way of transforming mass of
one spacial type to another.  It is, however only a theory at
this time.



@
Controlled Wormholes:


        NEWS FLASH! A controlled worm hole has been created.
Scientists sent a small research vessel through the wormhole to
the region of space where earth was calculated to be.  Earth was
found but it was totally devoid of human life.  Strangely
enough,  the planet was filled with all other known species --
just no people.  Due to the nature of worm holes, we are far
from being able to create a stable wormhole that will allow
ships larger than 6 meters in diameter to travel through them. 
For now, we are still confined to this galaxy.  The absence of
people from Earth has raised many questions.  Where has everyone
gone??
        The current problem with this technology is that they are
not very stable.  They don't last more than a few days.  Someone may
be able to do more work and achieve a stable wormhole (which would
increase trade).



@
4D Folding:



        Using spacial rifts, we have been able to warp space in the new
dimension (that we still have been unable to enter).  This means
that we will soon be able to create a warp drive that will
function in that dimension (after we figure out how to
successfully and safely create devices that can exist there).



@
4D Entrance:



        The U.S.S. Draginol has successfully entered the new dimension.
 However, they were forced to return within a few hours due to
the loss of structural integrity of their craft in several
minutes.  All aboard are safe, however.



@
4D Transformation:



        Using a new device from GalaCorp, small objects can now be
transformed into 4D compatible materials and converted back to
3D materials as well.



@
4D wormholes:



        While its use is unknown, we can now create worm holes in the
newly discovered dimension.



@
Controlled 4D Wormholes:



        Wormholes can now be stably made.  If Colonization of the new
dimension occurs, we will be able to make small but stable
wormholes.



@
Near Omniscience:



        Scientists have recently examined much of what our knowledge
base is and have declared that we now know more about everything

@
Near Omnipotence:



        Devices of incredible power are now extremely inexpensive and
easily made.  Future wars will likely result in the destruction
of one of the involved races.



@
Galactic Creation:


        Intergalactic Military Machines (IMM) and GalaCorp recently
merged to form Creator Corporation.  New company recently
released the Creator Device.  It can create an entire galaxy! 
The software involved is extreme but it does not require that
much mass to do.  The only drawback is that its range is
limited.  David Haran, spokesperson for Creator had this to
say,
        "You don't want to just create a new galaxy right in the
middle of an existing one, the gravitational and other forces
would tear apart both galaxies."  The weapon potential nearly
outweighs its beneficial uses.



@
Morphing:



        A new device from Intergalactic Military Machines (IMM) can
actually change one species to another and back with no harm
done.  Its uses will primarily remain with the military.



@
Beyond Humanity:



        A recent discover was made on a small asteroid floating in
Sector 1,2.  The asteroid contained a message that required our
most advanced computer systems and energy technologies to be
used in order to be deciphered.  The message is confidential,
but the origin of the contents appear to be from a Galactic
Creator or race of Creators.  Many have hinted that this entire
universe was created by a super race with extremely advanced
technologies.  A race...such as ours.



@
The Final Frontier:

        The wide spread colonizations has begun.  Advanced dimensional rifts have
been being created throughout our civilization.  This could be our last report in this
galaxy...


<Poof>


@
The master Race:

        Now that our scientists know what each DNA strand does, they
have begun to eliminate inferior strands from our genetic makeup.  With
this wondrous new technology, we will be able to eliminate unsightly
defects such as blindness, deafness, etc.  It won't be long until we are
able to totally weed out inferior feti right at conception.

@
Galactic Collusion

        Our government has made a great breakthrough.  Galactic Collusion
as the press has begun calling it is merely another way of increasing the
efficiency of trade between stars.  With this new technology, our
commerce will be made up of just a few chosen elite groups instead of
the unsightly 'free markets' that we had before.  This new system allows
for the government to collect a great deal of money from previously
untaxed sectors and civilizations through means that some uneducated
citizens call 'unethical'.


@
Thought Police

        Now that the human brain is well understood.  Our government has
moved forth with a new program where we can quickly and efficiently 
find people who are having illegal thoughts.  Illegal thoughts include:

* Not agreeing with the government
* Having impure thoughts about people outside your social class
* Not obeying all government directives
* Planning a protect

        And other atrocities.


@
Advanced Surveillance

        With the advanced computing resources available, our government
has begun to use them to watch over every aspect of society.  The government
has recently introduced "The CLEVER Chip" to be placed in every piece of
computer equipment that exists.  The Clever chip will allow the government
to look into every piece of email and every other kind of transaction by
deciphering the communications.  Those that do not user the Clever chip in
their products risk fines or imprisonment.
@
Advanced Pain Treatment

        With the human brain well understood, our scientists have figured
out how to cause those suffering from acute pain to avoid that pain.  The
patient will be able to adjust their pain level (from none to normal) while
using this treatment.  
        With this great achievement, victims of severe accidents such as
burn victims will be able to control the pain the suffer.

@
Unnatural Selection

        Our government has recently made the wise and just decision to
begin eliminating people who are not qualified to live.  The term
"Unnatural Selection" has been given to this new technology by its
detractors.  The government claims (and rightly so) that all it is doing
is reinstating true natural selection the way it used to be when mankind
was naturally evolving.  Now, citizens who are weak, retarded, or 
genetically defective (blind, deaf) will be weeded out so that they are not
able to reproduce and pass on their inferior genes.

@
Planetary Cleansing

        A new policy has been ordered and designed by the government.
Planets taken over by our military will have their alien ilk exterminated
so that they are 'cleaned'.  
        Kevin Bludd described the new system as follows:
        "It makes no sense to share the limited resources of a
conquered world with the obviously inferior alien races.  This new
system will quickly and efficiently eliminate the obsolete native populations."


@
Galactic Domination!

        We have achieved total Galactic Domination.  Our government
today destroyed all alien life forms.  We control the universe and soon
all other dimensions of this universe!

        YOU HAVE WON THE GAME BY BEING AN EVIL CIVILIZATION.
@
Virus Elimination

        Researchers have found a cure for all virus's.  The new
S series of vaccines will totally eliminate all known virus's.  A
new healthy future awaits our peoples.


@
Regeneration

        Natural regeneration of animals has always existed in a limited
form.  Now, our scientists will be able to regenerate lost limbs, and
organs.
@
Hyperwarp

        An incredible and unlikely breakthrough has been achieved.  The
blind scientist "Roven Dilka" who theorized long ago that a speed beyond
Hyperspace was achievable turned out to be right.  A new drive system
called "Hyperwarp" has been discovered.  With this new system, our ships
will be able to go faster than ever before.
@
Interspecies Philosophy

        A new philosophy has recently been developed.  It is very powerful
because it amazingly fits in with all the religious and philosophical
beliefs of the alien civilizations that we know of thus far.

@
Cure for Depression

        Depression has long been a problem for our society.  It is
almost ironic that the cure for cancer was discovered (back on earth) long
before the cure for depression was found. 
        Now, untold suffering will end.

@
Galactic Peace

        Our good civilization has discovered the true answer to
Galactic Peace.  All existing civilizations will be able to live in
harmony with us.

        YOU HAVE WON THE GAME BY BEING A GOOD CIVILIZATION.

@
Utopian Society

        A theoretical means of having a peaceful society has been
developed.  The good part is that a good civilization can create one
wondrous planet.
        The bad part is that only one planet can do it.


@
Disrupters
        Our glorious empire has found a new weapon system called
"Disrupters".  New and wonderful weapons will be able to be created so
that we can snuff out our enemies!


@
Brainwave Weapons

        With the help of Omni computers and knowledge of the brain
structures of our enemies, our government has developed a new type of
weapons.  With Brainwave weapons, our mighty and glorious soldiers will
be able to paralyze (permanently) enemies by ripping their brain's internal
structure to shreds!

@
Advanced Phasors

        Dr. Imilr, the scientist who cannot speak verbally, has developed
a new type of Phasor which has quickly been dubbed "Advanced Phasor". 
Stronger Phases of energy can be developed for weaponry and even medical
purposes.
