Brief Summary

Einstein Engines is the first Interstellar Corporation to have formed on the advent of interstellar travel. Einstein Engines originated as a conglomerate of various aerospace companies who shared a joint research project for extrastellar travel. This project would have immense consequences for the human race, as the project came to fruition. In the year 2130, a sustained, stable warp interface was formed. This development served to catapult the conglomerate to be a dominating economic power throughout the world; their warp technology revolutionizing space travel and manufacture as micro-gee orbital industrial stations began to be constructed around the equator.

This expansion in industrial capabilities lead to the great expansion of humanity across space, as warp-enabled probes traveled to nearby systems, finding habitable worlds scattered across space.

The power of Einstein Engines continued to grow throughout the following centuries, eclipsing the other Interstellar Corporations; however, this expansion was not to last.

In the year 2417, only four short years after the discovery of the Skrell, a relatively young Interstellar Corporation, Nanotrasen, discovered a previously unknown chemical, dubbed Plasma. Plasma was discovered to have an incredible energy density, far beyond that of conventional fusion or fission. This energy source, along with the Skrell's experimental Bluespace drives, far superior to the aged Warp technology pioneered by Einstein Engines, burst the unending growth bubble of Einstein Engines.

As Nanotrasen grew into it's present day super-power, Einstein Engines collapsed inwards, filing bankruptcy and undergoing massive restructuring into it's modern form.

Present Day

In the present day, Einstein Engines still holds a significant powerbase, despite it's losses in the first half of the 25th century. Continuing to serve it's market, Einstein Engines produces many important spaceship components, and continues to contend with Nanotrasen over the efficiency of their different marques of Bluespace engine. The two giants awkwardly co-exist in human space, despite multiple copyright and trademark lawsuits bouncing between them on a monthly basis.
