Alien science may be light-years ahead
of ours, literally—it is likely that if we encounter intelligent
alien life, they have traveled the stars at faster-than-light (FTL)
speeds. If this knowledge was shared, the immense shift in our space
programs would be staggering to imagine. Planetary colonization on
distant worlds would no longer be out of reach, mining operations on
asteroids and other planets might yield more abundant resources, and
a new age of exploration would begin. Alien science might also
improve our understanding of energy, and hopefully clean energy could
replace fossil fuels. Medical science might extend our lifespans,
eradicate disease, and possibly even eradicate genetic disorders. Yet
with all of this new information, we might also head down a path that
would challenge our morals and ethics. Aliens may not regard life as
we do, and their views may not align with ours!
As seven alien races struggle to co-exist in an uneasy alliance, the Inter-Stellar Union sends Union Guard agents on missions to preserve the crucial balance. These specialized operatives must do what regional security cannot, dealing with smugglers, pirates, terrorists, and even greater challenges in order to bring stability to a universe that needs it desperately. Without the Union Guard, the races will not be prepared to face a looming alien threat they can only hope to defeat together.
