First Contact Day


 

Happy First Contact Day, everyone. It’s the holiday celebrated by good people of the galaxy in tribute to the flight of the Phoenix and the pivotal first interaction between humans and Vulcans. The event took place – or will take place, on April 5, 2063. That evening, a Vulcan survey ship, the T’Plana-Hath, landed in Bozeman, Montana, after tracking the warp signature of the Phoenix, a spacecraft that represented mankind’s first successful attempt at achieving warp drive. Moments later on that same day, a robed Vulcan greeted Dr. Zefram Cochrane, first Contact was made, setting in motion a chain of events that led to the formation of the United Federation of Planets.
