Unity had grown. It was nearly at the point where it had forces from all countries swelling its ranks. The news that they were building a space borne fleet of ships had been leaked at the appropriate time. When no one from the World Government denied it, it was reported as fact. Dozens of countries were involved in the construction, with six major production facilities around the world, and hundreds of smaller, specialist ones too. The design for the construction of the fleet had fallen to John Deeth. This plus his increased personal lifestyle had been contributing factors in his agreeing to transfer control of Constellation to Unity.
After the tumult of freeing themselves from the clutches of the Sunarr, John had managed to spend some more time in his laboratory. Free of the worry of the Sunarr he had finally put the crystal into the Sekkos device. The headset threw-up an image and it was one that stunned him cold. The crystal held a map. A twenty thousand year old map of the galaxy. There were dozens of inhabited planets. It was this discovery that had given the urgency to the construction of the space fleet. There were others out there. They had a mission.
