Well, in a way. The Proxima Centauri kit is
designed to represent the first ever ship to
explore beyond our solar system. Her mission
is to travel to our nearest neighbor, Proxima
Centauri, and to see if there are any habitable
planets there.
The "history" part? Well, the story behind
this ship and this mission is that it all took
place in the PAST for the current members of
the United Solar Planetary Federation, as
depicted in so many of our other futuristic kits
(check'em out, there's an exciting back-story
to many of them in the universe of the USPF).
This historic mission is being celebrated on the
200th anniversary of her launch from earth
orbit with a crew of 83 officers, scientist and
other crew.
Her discovery of habitable planets,
establishment of the first colony and the
mysterious loss of 20 of the crew on the fateful
return mission.
Discover the true beginnings of what becomes
the largest political union of races in the
known galaxy! The faltering steps towards
independence as we explore the outer reaches
of near space on our quest to spread
knowledge and add diversity to our lives!
