 The original transmissions clearly were of a broadcast nature and as we know the first transmission recorded in human space were at least 2,500 years old, possibly much older at the time they were positively verified. The original transmissions clearly were of a broadcast nature and as we know the first transmission recorded in human space were at least 2,500 years old, possibly much older at the time they were positively verified.

 +====== Operation Second Sight ======
 +Operation Second Sight is a follow-up mission to the Boldy Go civilisation, launched by the Republic of New Venus and including some invited MAFC scientists.  The MAFC is also supplying SV support to this mission.
 +
 +The RNV sent two SSXI Interstellar Survey Vessels.  The first arrived 3206.201 and exchanged some personnel with the Boldly Go mission. It was due to begin the return journey on 3211.181.  By that time the second SSXI should be on station to replace it, this being due to have arrived around 3211.150.
 +
 +Data from the mission is being passed to the Venerian Institute for Alien Studies (VIAS) in the first instance.
 +
 +During this time, human visitors (in AMI) have been observed.

 +====== Operation Third Kind ======
 +Operation Third Kind is a Venerian follow-up mission.
