The founding of XÆ (originally named "Colony X") in Arcadia Planitia.


The city had been fully built for nearly two years, with construction taking place over a full decade via automated systems and crews of less than ten. Manned surveyour missions began twenty years earlier in 2026, establishing and testing temporary housing concepts that would lead to the famous craftsmanship of the Martian Mason.
