Timeline
This section or article is being updated. Certain details are subject to change. You can help this by contributing.
This page is literally all stolen from http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Timeline as a shitty placeholder. Nothing here is applicable to Vorestation. Ignore it for now and come back later.
What follows is a complete timeline of significant events in the known history of space travel in the Milky Way.
Or it would be. Right now it's still a shitty placeholder.
Note that the history of the Space Station 13 universe is not entirely our own, but rather one that has diverged from ours during the early 20th century. So while it takes place in the future, it is not our future, but a future as imagined by this community.
