+When XS-25-33 was discovered in 2105 by American astrophysicist Janie Richmond, it was declared devoid of intelligent life (DIL) by the United States government. Its atmosphere and natural conditions were expected to be suitable for human life, and it was therefore recommended for the US Department of Space Colonization's controversial READY program, aimed at observing the organic development of human society from afar.
+The planet was first colonized by the USDSC in 2121 with plans for surveillance through 2621. In accordance with READY regulations, forty adult colonists were stationed at ten sites across the planet (two male-female couples per site) along with a hundred cryogenically frozen embryos per site, to be unfrozen at regular intervals. Colonists were instructed to set up basic camps and to oversee the thawing and raising of the embryos over a period of fifty years. They were also instructed to reveal as little information as possible about who they were and where they came from and to communicate with newly thawed colonists, known as First Wavers, without any spoken language.
+Over the next two centuries, the residents of XS-25-33 were monitored remotely by the USDSC from a covert base on the larger of the planet's two moons, XS-25-33-A. However, contact between this lunar base and Earth was lost during the Yucatán War of 2338. The READY program was completely abandoned by the United States government when the USDSC was disbanded in 2045. Earth humans would not monitor or interact with the residents of XS-25-33 until the year 2896.
