next year following 643-CTD2
- Terra Venture
prepares to depart Earth orbit in search of New
World (701-QsQ1)
[Despite the narration in 701-QsQ1 placing PRLG in the "not-too-distant future," as well as the Megaship's curious state of disrepair, signs may favor a modern-day setting for PRLG and PRLR to place them before the 2001 of PRTF. (Check back following the PRTF/PRLR teamup.)]
- Terra Venture has
been constructed from pieces of Earth, perhaps
awakening Lights of Orion (706-LOrn)
[Leo showed no surprise to being told the
Lights of Orion had resided in the earth
of Terra Venture for eons (706-LOrn), which only would have been possible
if the land for the colony had been taken from Earth, assuming a modern-day construction of the
space colony. Given the Lights' home on
Terra Venture (706-LOrn), the jostling during the final
construction of the colony may have stirred the Galaxy powers to life,
triggering the creation of the numerous portals between Earth's and Mirinoi's
orbits (701-QsQ1).]
- Astro Megaship
has become a museum aboard Terra Venture,
operated by Alpha and DECA, maintained by Damon
(702-QsQ2); Space
Rangers have become inactive (702-QsQ2,
730-TenP)
departure day
- in the early morning, eight hours before Terra Venture's departure, Stanton and crew monitor systems as shuttle flights bring final groups
of crewmembers (701-QsQ1)
- engine tests
scheduled at 0800 (701-QsQ1)
- Scorpius has Furio attempt to steal Quasar Sabers from Mirinoi (apparently in Lost Galaxy) (701-QsQ1)
? final Terra Venture training mission on moon begins at 1700 (701-QsQ1)
[As the heliship flew
toward the moon, Mike
reported ETA was at 1700, yet previously, before 0800, Terra Venture had been eight hours from
departure, meaning departure should have been no later than 1600.]
- Maya travels to moon and brings teens back
to Mirinoi (701-QsQ1)
- Kai and Damon fly Megaship
from Terra Venture to Mirinoi through portal (702-QsQ2)
- Mike falls to apparent
doom, actually absorbed by lifeless Magna
Defender (702-QsQ2, 715-RDay)
- teens become Galaxy Rangers (702-QsQ2)
- Mirinoi turned to
stone, Rangers fly to Terra Venture in Megaship (702-QsQ2)
- Terra Venture
departs (702-QsQ2)
- Scorpius follows Rangers through portal (702-QsQ2)
days/weeks later
- Terra Venture civilians have been given uniforms (703-RTTR)
- Brunt's Stingwingers have captured Galactabeasts, which are soon freed by Rangers (703-RTTR)
- Galaxy Rangers'
first public appearance aboard Terra
Venture (703-RTTR)
- Galactabeasts ally
with Rangers (703-RTTR)
days/weeks later
- Rangers obtain
stolen Transdaggers (704-Rook)
days/weeks later
- Rangers obtain Jet Jammers (705-Hmsk)
- Galactabeasts
transformed into Galactazords by Transdaggers (705-Hmsk)
- Rangers fly Matthew back to Earth, the last flight between Terra Venture and Earth on the journey (705-Hmsk)
days/weeks later
- Scorpius's forces
begin search for elusive Lights of Orion
on Terra Venture (706-LOrn)
days/weeks/months later - late March, 1999
- some time after the Terra Venture filming of Star Crossed Lovers, Carolyn Pickets wins an Oscar (707-DblD)
[Carolyn was on Terra Venture television accepting what
looked identical to an Oscar (707-DblD), no
doubt intended to be an Oscar, as this episode was originally aired the
day before the 1999 Academy Awards. Given this, Carolyn probably won the award in late March, as
all Adademy Awards from 1990 to 2000 were aired between March 21 and
March 30.]
days/weeks later - late March / early April, 1999
- Rangers destroy
Quakemaker (708-BlCr)
- two days later, Furio and
Leo clash in cave, Furio
destroys self (709-MagD)
[Kai's crush lasted two days, according to
Damon (708-BlCr); it
began with the Quakemaker
attack and ended as Leo was out fighting Furio before being rescued (709-MagD).]
- Magna Defender
returns seeking Lights of Orion (709-MagD)
- Treacheron serves as
Scorpius's new general (709-MagD)
days/weeks/months later
- Damon's birthday (712-ORis)
- Destruxo
releases Lights of Orion (712-ORis)
days/weeks later
- Rangers receive
Lights (713-ORet)
[Predicting the Lights' return in
712-ORis, Maya knew
they would return "someday," implying a passage of at least several days
(or else "soon" would have been more appropriate), and Maya's precognition was right every other time.]
- another day, Treacheron dies in combat (714-ShAt)
days/weeks later
- Magna Defender
releases Mike and sacrifices self to save Terra Venture (715-RDay)
- the same day or the next, Mike becomes new Magna
Defender (716-DFrG)
- Terra Venture has
traveled 5.6 light-years from Earth (716-DFrG)
days/weeks later
- Trakeena runs away,
ending up on Onyx, and begins training with Villamax (717-StlB,
721-Heir)
days/weeks later
- Terra Venture
receives recording from alien
vessel under attack
- Terra Venture
appears to be roughly one quarter along its journey to the New World (718-ReMi)
[See next entry.]
weeks/months later
- Terra Venture soldiers board alien vessel (718-ReMi)
[Several factors together imply a long period of time needed to
reach the alien vessel. First, a
display showed the vessel at 32% along Terra
Venture's path to the Eurolean Galaxy.
Terra Venture, somewhat nearby, changed
course to intercept and was therefore roughly 15% to 30% along their
path before changing course. Given that the vessel was positioned away
from Terra Venture's course at a
perpendicular distance of 24% of the total path length, Terra Venture would have had to travel a
considerable amount of time to reach the vessel: specifically, anywhere
between 53% and 78% of the distance traveled from 702-QsQ2 to 718-ReMi.]
- soldiers find Galaxy Book, stolen centuries ago (718-ReMi, 735-EnLG)
days later
- one afternoon, Deviot
brings three evil Zords, joins Scorpius's ranks (719-LGb1)
[This probably occurred only a few days at most after 718-ReMi, as the Science Division was still just
beginning to delve into its research on the Galaxy Book (719-LGb1).]
- that night, three Zords ally with Rangers (720-LGb2)
- Terra Venture has
traveled 14 light-years from Earth, passing
point of no return (720-LGb2)
days/weeks later
- Scorpius mortally
wounded by Red Ranger (721-Heir)
- Trakeena and Villamax return to Scorpion Stinger, Trakeena becomes new queen (721-Heir)
days/weeks/months later - late spring / early summer, 1999
- Scorpion Stinger damaged by meteoroid field (724-GrCr)
[The seemingly recent
detection of an approaching meteoroid field near Terra Venture was dated on a GSA status report as, "Stardate 9905.24 at 1500 hours
Terra Venture standard time," suggesting a detection date of May 24, 1999.]
days/weeks later
- Red Capsular
Cycle first used (726-MWhM)
days/weeks later
- Loyax destroyed after
returning to side of good (727-LxLB)
days/weeks/months later
- Deviot obtains data cards, resurrects old
"friends" the Psycho Rangers (730-TenP)
- Andros, Space Rangers reclaim Astro Morphers, defeat Psycho Rangers (730-TenP)
- later, perhaps another day, Psycho Pink obtains Savage Sword, Kendrix killed in battle (731-PPnk)
- Space Rangers
return to Earth with powers (731-PPnk)
- another day, Karone
tracks pink saber to Onyx, becomes new Pink Ranger (732-PQsS)
days/weeks/months later - 208 days after departure from Earth
- scientists discover Keonta spell (735-EnLG)
[The 208 days is dependent upon Terra
Venture being in the Lost Galaxy for
the next four days. See the next several sections for chronology
explanations.]
- Guardian finds Galaxy Book after its theft centuries ago (735-EnLG)
Lost Galaxy saga, Day One - 209 days after departure
- next morning, Deviot
recites Keonta spell, sending Terra
Venture to the Lost Galaxy (735-EnLG)
- Captain Mutiny
reactivates dormant Titanisaur
to rendezvous with Terra Venture (735-EnLG)
- Captain Mutiny
tricks GSA into unleashing Grunchor on colony to add citizens
to existing army of slaves (736-BMut)
- Deviot allies with Captain Mutiny, who fears Trakeena's wrath (737-GOTL)
- Grunchor
destroyed (737-GOTL)
- Captain Mutiny's
planet vanishes, but Leo and Damon track it down,
rescued by others by sunset (737-GOTL, 738-USun)
[Mutiny had mentioned the
fruition of his plans by sunset repeatedly during the same day (736-BMut, 737-GOTL),
and there is little reason to suspect that his arrival to execute Leo and Damon wasn't that
same sunset to which he'd been referring all along.]
another day - Lost Galaxy, Day Two - 210 days after departure
- Mutiny seeks help
of Hexuba, who puts spell on teens (739-DrBa)
[It's not certain that 739-DrBa
occurred on the very next day following 738-USun, but the mood of urgency throughout the
Lost Galaxy saga would appear to leave
little room for missing time.]
another day - Lost Galaxy, Day Three - 211 days after departure
- Hexuba destroyed after
unleashing ghosts of past monsters (740-HGrv)
[When Hexuba had caused the teens to fall asleep, there was no surprise at Damon taking a nap, indicating that the time was
probably not morning (739-DrBa). However, in
(740-HGrv), Mutiny rowed out to check on her some time
after speaking with her at the end of 739-DrBa, at which point she was having lunch,
hinting that 740-HGrv was not set in the same
day as 739-DrBa; while weak, this is the only
indication of the passage of days during this brief period.]
- at night, Stanton discovers tainted fuel, only one
or two days left (740-HGrv)
next day - Lost Galaxy, Day Four - 212 days after departure
- morning: numerous engines lost (741-RTit)
- day: Titanisaur attacks, is destroyed
(741-RTit)
- afternoon: Rangers free Mutiny's slaves
(742-EsLG)
[This episode, 742-EsLG, had to have
taken place during the same day as 741-RTit,
as Terra Venture could only survive for a
maximum of two days after the night of 740-HGrv; the second day would be the descent to
Mirinoi in 743-End1, and thus 741-RTit and 742-EsLG
had to have both occurred on the first day after the tainted fuel
supplies were discovered.]
- Torozord destroyed (742-EsLG)
- Galaxy Book frees Terra Venture from Lost Galaxy, less than a week after entry (742-EsLG)
- Trakeena destroys Mutiny's castle (742-EsLG)
- Trakeena absorbs Deviot (743-End1)
- Terra Venture
approaches Mirinoi, now in normal space (743-End1)
- 212 days have passed since Terra Venture's departure from Earth (743-End1)
next day - 213 days after departure
- Terra Venture
crippled, crashes on Mirinoi's moon (743-End1)
- Villamax slain (744-End2)
- Astro Megaship
destroyed (744-End2)
- Terra Venture humans evacuate to Mirinoi (744-End2)
