Earth

Earth was the homeplanet of the Humans, but sometime between 3059 and 3069 Earth was destroyed by a catastrophic geothermal experiment. Fortunately, many of the residents were relocated to Esperenza before the blast. Small remains of Earth scattered the galaxy, some falling onto Esperenza's surface creating a valuable commodity. Scientists theorized that a crystal of Earth's Core also landed on Esperenza, and after being recovered by one of the blast survivors, it was used to generate a new planet with the ability to sustain life like Earth once did.
