2003

March

 * 7: On the planet Megaron, the Alphans are drawn into a planetary civil war.

April

 * 22: The first of five defensive laser cannons comes online. The base's Weapons and Defense section is created.

July

 * 6 to 9: Alpha is stopped in space near the planet Arkadia. The planet, sterilized by an ancient nuclear war, is ready for rebirth. As Alpha departs, Technicians Luke Ferro and Anna Davis remain behind.


 * 22: While leaving the Arkadian star system, a recon Eagle carrying Victor Bergman, David Kano, two sensor technicians and pilot Paul Morrow is sent into the system's asteroid belt to investigate the source of a mysterious radio signal. Just as Alpha reaches the limit of the ship's range, the Eagle takes a meteor hit and is crippled. Too far away to try a rescue, Alpha sadly travels on. The fate of the men remains unknown.


 * 26: The dangers driven home by the loss of Bergman and the others prompt Koenig to close down Main Mission and transfer control to the base's underground Command Center.

August

 * 10: By popular request, Koenig and the department heads approve a new official uniform for Alpha personnel


 * 24: New nomenclature is created for Alpha signage and equipment.


 * 29: Chief of Security Tony Verdeschi transfers to Operations, becoming the new Mission Controller.

September

 * 21: For the second time, Alpha passes through a space warp. After re-emerging six light years from its previous position, computer analysis of distant stellar radiation levels is compared with recorded data. This reveals that the rift has also thrown the moon three years backward in time, to a point less than one year after they had left Earth. In an attempt to maintain Earth time as closely as possible, Koenig orders all Alpha event recorders to be reset to 338 days since leaving Earth orbit, reflecting true universal time, making the date 16 August 2000.

Post Time Warp
''According to the Shane Johnson Timeline, Alpha passes through a space warp, which had thrown the moon three years backward in time, to a point less than one year after they had left Earth. In an attempt to maintain Earth time as closely as possible, Koenig orders all Alpha event recorders to be reset to 338 days since leaving Earth orbit, reflecting true universal time, resulting in some of the following events overlapping with those listed above.''

 * 24 to 26: Alpha, bracing against a series of shock wave concussions, encounters the world of the chrysalis sleepers.

 * 25 to 27: Creatures from the Beta Cloud send an android to steal Alpha's life-support core.
