2015
January: the Asgard ships are approved for use by a special forces group to patrol the lower tech worlds under the aegis of the Protected Planets Treaty, as the planets are likely to accept the groups cover story of being some of Thor's warriors in armor and protected from harm by Thor's gift ( personal shields)
February: the SC-311 flotilla traces the unexplained hyper traces to a civilization that has matured enough to build Hyperdrives without Wraith cullings, when contacted they apparently have taken in some survivors from Sateda as Ronan is recognized and welcomed. The survivors say that they are part of a multi-planet association called Those Who Are Homeless. As talks with the Satedan branch of this association continue Ronan finds out that they are the only ones who dare to use any form of space travel as they are the ones who are most capable of defending themselves. They have apparently, with the help of the rest of the Homeless, developed a highly effective energy weapon to use against the wraith. Unfortunately they are not interested in trading examples of this weapon, but may in the future as relations improve.
March: McKay is assigned to try to improve the sensor system of Atlantis. After saying that it is nearly impossible, he throws himself into the project saying that it will take at least a couple of months to study all of the different sensor systems encountered over the years and to try to incorporate the best parts of them into Atlantis's own, highly complex, sensor system.
April: deployment of GSS systems and scout ships in the Ida galaxy is begun and proceeds slowly as this is the first really unexplored, by humans, galaxy that the TI has visited. As they have the Asgard Core the Ida galaxy is wide open and explored.
May: while calibrating Atlantis's sensors to see if he can incorporate non Ancient technology as upgrades, McKay finds a signs of a ZPM stockpile or factory somewhere in the Milky Way. As the signal is diffuse there is no chance of finding it using shipboard sensors. It is however within 5 -10 light-years of Earth
June - July: after many hours of tedious talks it is decided to dispatch a Sector fleet equivalent, with several dozen SC-311 flotillas to the Andromeda galaxy to establish a beach head for further exploration. The Gaia fortress of the fleet will be the second built and be called the De Gama. It will be completed approx. 10 months after the Sol has finished proving trials. The De Gama and the SC-311s will be equipped with copied Stargates for rapid inter-ship transport, and supply delivery. The possibility of constructing a Supergate is not put off the table, as a Supergate will allow rapid transit to and from Andromeda
August: the Gaia class HQ fortress, the Sol, is completed; proving trials are finished in record time, it will take at least another ten months to finish all system integration, systems testing, weapon system readiness tests, and full supply delivery to the station. On the De Gama construction and supplying and testing will take less time as this is the second Gaia built.
September - December: R&D into constructing Stargates and Supergates is begun, an envoy is sent to the Ori galaxy to see if the Priors will share the secrets to building a Supergate. Supply buildup for the Andromeda expedition is begun but is expected to take a while, the best estimate is that all supplies will be ready about a month before the projected departure date for the expedition. Initial survey drones are dispatched to find a star system suitable for becoming a beach head for exploration. The only requirement is that the system have two planets capable of being used for the construction of an Ori style Supergate. And that one of the planets be amicable to human life.
