Core Expedition (Secret) History

There is a secret history to the star map projector.

• In -4218 the Zhodani discovered a cavern 1.5 Km below the ancient Zhdant City site. In this cavern was a starmap projector which displayed a 30 pc diameter corridor of stars stretching 8000 pc towards the galactic core.

• In -4034 the status of this novelty device was changed to a state secret when it was discovered to have accurately predicted the -4074 misjump of the Lienjqiets, which became apparent when it limped home 40 years later.

• The first expedition to explore this area left in -4006 as the first Core Expedition. The Zhodani have used the precognitive ability of the star map projector to assist them in avoiding/dealing with races encountered along the core expedition route.
