Achievements2042 - Invented a new catalytic converter which means petrol cars are 82% efficient
2045 - Global Carbon Dioxide emissions reduced by nearly 30% thanks to the new converter 2052 - SCORPION's top scientists evacuated from Earth. 2068 - New chemical created which can be hardened into an extremely tough building material 2070 - New worldwide policy introduced meaning all cars must be fitted with the new converter and any less than 80% efficient must be destroyed and recycled 2100 - New century begins and SCORPION reveal the details of a new breeding project allowing inter-species cross breeding 2103 - The first human hybrid is successfully born: half human, half gorilla 2107 - Hybrid experiments move away from apes and experiments on birds 2110 - Hybrid experiments expand to reptiles as a cat-lizard is made. The cat-lizard dies after 2 months as the cardiovascular system failed to work properly 2115 - Human-gorilla dies after experiments on the animal caused anxiety and depression in the animal's brain 2120 - Hybrid project stops for an unknown reason |
Milky-Way SCORPIONThe Milky-Way Scientific Corporation is a research institution set up by an anonymous person whose identity has been kept secret. The corporation has made many incredible discoveries through the 21st and into the 22nd century. Many species' have been reintroduced thanks to their work and the global warming issue on Earth has been significantly reduced thanks to an extensive 10 year research project. 80% of planet Earth's nations have made agreements with the corporation to allow experimentation and thus leading to some of the greatest scientific breakthroughs of all time.
Kathia Sonez (Leader) b. 2102As SCORPION is not a company but a scientific organisation, it cannot have a CEO, so instead a Leader is appointed. Kathia Sonez is now in her 60s but has no plans to give up her job as she says: "I love what we do, what we can achieve; it's always a joy when we discover something new or find a solution to a problem. Of course, we rejoice when we can help lots of people, but even the smallest things are another thing to add to the list of good we've done!" Sonez never mentions how there is a lot of dispute towards what SCORPION are allowed to do and there have been many campaigns to take down the corporation, all of which have failed thanks to shared support from the nations which support the work they do.
RivalryIt is a well-known fact that SCORPION and OMNI have regular races to discovery, much like the space race in the 20th century. Usually, OMNI wins the debate as they also have a military division and tend to threaten SCORPION. There have even been acts of terrorism on SCORPION laboratories, none of which have been confirmed to be OMNI's work, but SCORPION have taken OMNI to court over 20 times claiming that people have been killed thanks to their military action on SCORPION labs. In 2284, during the construction of the Sycho Tower, SCORPION were trying out a new version of their building material discovered 14 years prior. There were reported sightings of 'unauthorised personnel' on site in OMNI uniform. SCORPION was working alongside Horizon Industries to build the tower, but an unexplained explosion in one of the chemical tanks on site meant the CEO of Horizon Industries (who was on site at the time) had to be rushed to hospital. The OMNI CEO later appeared in court with the SCORPION Leader to sort out the situation. Unfortunately, SCORPION lost the court case due to a lack of evidence and OMNI walked free once again.
