The Earth's rotational
speed is actually in constant fluctuation. Earthquakes, melting ice,
tsunamis, and large air masses are all influencing the Earth's spin,
though only by milliseconds. Imagine an earthquake collapsing a
portion of ground—this produces a change in the Earth's
circumference, reducing it slightly and essentially speeding up the
planet's rotation. A large air mass, however, can have an opposite
effect, slowing rotation just like you'd slow yourself down in a
spinning chair by extending your arms and legs. Are there any events
we should be concerned about that might cause a more noticeable
change in the Earth's rotational speed? There has already been such
an event in the Earth's history...
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.
