Welcome back!
This is a definite spoiler alert for my fans that like story line. Chronologically speaking, where still on Babylon 3 Story wise. What you’re seeing is the first Elevation and testing of the first IPX found Shadow Vessel found on Jupiters Moon of Ganymede. I decided to place this one now in order to establish a cause and effect thread; thus creating the spoiler. I honestly really enjoyed the Enhanced Destroyer Fleet and would rather keep that Epic battle in play.
The Tectonic activity on Ganymede had to be stabilized, so therefore there was a dig and removal of the source. This also connects the dots and allows Earth Force to begin studying and experimenting with the ships technology enough where a believable Research and Development Covert Program could reach fruition with that fleet placing the wrench in the gears here. To date, no one has ever tried to visualize the initial first steps and what that could look like. So I took it upon myself to model it. One picture shows only the top of the structure, this is symbolic of Ganyemedes surface. Now, Ganymede actually is a pretty cold Icy Moon Orbiting Jupiter that does have magnetic attributes and also encounter Aurora Activity. If you put those 2 together, you have a perfect frozen long term hidden and cryogenic effect on organic matter; as these ships are extensions of Shadow Genetics, this also would lead credence to the planetary choice.
Babylon 3 is still operating, however the Vorlons have withdrew their presence without much explaination, (nothing new there), however, Babylon 3’s story must come to an end at some point. The name sake governs that. This is a covert operation that President Santiago who is pro Vorlon is not aware of, only a select joint Chiefs of Staffs reporting to Vice President Clark. So here we have a start to this model. Its an alternate story line and I’ve probably said to much already, but not enough to tell the ending of Babylon 3 and ignite Babylon 4’s development. I will say as a clue however, Babylon 4 was technically a ship as it could be move under its own power. The Design Intent there suggest that Babylon 3 was Destroyed by a viscous attack. By who, we shall see.
So what we have here is a constructed cage, smal early stage development center with the ship exumed from its hiding place 1000 years previous to surface cover. I am going to be owned in blowing into this story arch. So if you like the story, you’re in for a treat.
The Earth Force and Minbari and in a rebuilding stage and somewhat estranged from the Vorlons Avalon Project Babylon 2 hand over and rejection. This is not a good tactical situation, and this model begins the start of the Antibelum Stage for this alternate story line. Watch this model, More to come as in other listings.
Enjoy!
