    Anonymous, likely human user. There were many nuclear warheads used on Earth. This was one in many. And for your information, my home town was 'nuked'. It may seem significant to one, but splitting an atom is a crude method of destruction, and is done countless times.

    For example, if I mentioned 'Ahto City' I am sure no non-Hylotl would have bothered to know what that was. Why should we believe a war in your ancient history is more memorable than a war that nearly wiped out our species?

    Funny, wasn't your race nearly exterminated by florans wielding clubs and other crude weapons? Or were the Hylotl actually stupid enough to nuke themselves?

    Not all florans are stupid or tribal. Yes, there are many tribal and stupid florans, but not _every_ floran is stupid and tribal.

    Our people were too ignorant to prepare for a possible war with aliens, so we had no weapons aside from traditional katanas and such. The Florans had access to Apex ships, which frequently had nuclear armaments. A ship carrying 200+ nuclear warheads crashed intentionally into Ahto City, our center of trade and commerce on our planet.

    Many Florans have the ability to be civilized and intelligent. However a majority still crave the taste of blood, as Sen continues to remind us. I appreciate the Civilized Floran, the likes of Sativa. I loathe the Savage Floran, the likes of Sen. Savage Florans are a threat to galactic peace, and have no place in our community.

    Syntia, if you're reading this, I want you to know that if you're ever proven to be innocent for one reason or another, you can come back to Opportunity with our deepest apologies.

    In fairness, to my knowledge there is no current crime as producing antimatter, in addition you only took what you made so that could hardly be counted as theft. Stark currently has no additional laws listed and so I think that it follows the United Systems law system. Unless, of course, the planet this lab was not registered as one for the United Systems to protect, in which case there is technically no laws or enforcement for them except what ever that planet can muster.

    As I am uncertain if the lab was located on the same planet as the Stark colony I would be interest in knowing if this location was previously registered as a protected location, and I should point out that it is only fair that such a list of planets should be made public as it is unreasonable for people to be expected to follow the "laws" of a larger organization when we don't even know which planets they claim protection/control over.

    For all we know this may have appeared as an abandoned research facility with broken equipment on an unprotected planet.
