In 1937, Amelia Earhart attempted to circumnavigate the globe. On her
last attempt she found herself victim to the effects Dragon's 
Triangle. However, she did not disappear, but rather two months later
surprisingly found herself heading south towards Miami, Florida with
no recollection of those two months. A year later early in the year,
Earhart is contracted by the American Government to partake on a solo
flight, into space. The world becomes alive with this news and
speculation follows as to her disappearance the year before and the
sudden increase in space flight technology. Despite the buzz, in June
1938, Amelia Earhart successfully departs from the Earth at an
undisclosed location, early in the morning. About three hours in to
Amelia Earhart's space flight, she sets out to run her craft through
maneuvers. Reportedly, after an especially spectacularly amazing
maneuver, the startled Amelia is approached by another space craft,
of almost similar design as her own. The pilot of this other craft
visually signals for her to follow. The story goes that after a few
minutes of following the strange craft and catching up to its speed,
a strange light opened before the ship and the two crafts entered.
The Earth lost visual and radio contact with Amelia Earhart for ten
minutes before a similar light opened and the two crafts returned to
Earth.

After nearly ten hours, the other space craft leaves the Earth. The
world exploded with questions and more speculation, but answers were
soon given a week later when a public statement from the President of
the United States of America, Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The
statement tells that during Amelia Earhart's flight into space, she
made first contact with an otherworldly person. This person guided
Miss Earheart to a planet far away and returned after establishing
friendly relations.

Between late 1938 and early 1940, more and more contact is made with
various beings belonging to a union of planets. Chosen
representatives from Earth and other planets taking part in an
exchange of sorts, living amongst each other, sharing knowledge,
science, medicine, history, discoveries, and ideas. A small, modern
city with a diverse ecosystem surrounding it has been chosen by most
of the new inhabitants to live and spend their time on Earth with
friends and family by the name of Myristica.
