Between interrogation of the survivors aboard the Pharoah Alziani the Great and the Second Core, the Jardin government learned a substantial deal of information. Most important of all however was the news that the EU(LR) had been launched to provide reconnaissance data for the 5th Banner Fleet which was projected to arrive in the Large Magellanic Cloud in a roughly sixty year timeframe. First Minister Desmond hastened to publish the most pertinent information as across the Cloud. As well, he issued personal diplomatic overtures to all known powers ranging from the Phoenix Empire and Free Star League to the most minor periphery powers that urged reconciliation and military preparation to meet the threat. Within a week's time the Phoenix Empire acknowledged the veracity of Jardin claims in a major public broadcast. Other responses varied.
