• 2055 - The University of Miami concludes decades of climate research that resulted in several technologies help to begin reversing dangerous CO2 levels in the atmosphere. These breakthroughs lead to new theories and research into terraforming, which in turn lead to the first realistic proposals for colonization beyond earth.
• 2063 - Researchers at LMU Munich announce a major breakthrough in fusion technology, creating the world's first practical Helium-3 reactor.

• 2131 - Pharmaceutical company Bayer AG unveil the first nano-machines, capable of not only delivering medicines directly to problem areas and patching up destroyed tissue, but facilitate a far less invasive man-machine interface than existed in the past. This causes an explosion of better performing Mechanized Workers and leads to more practical use of the machiens as Mechanized Soldiers and Mechanized LEOs become a thing.
