Universal Century

Universal Century (or UC for short) is one of the timelines of the Gundam on ROBLOX metaseries. The Japanese translation is 宇宙世紀 (Uchū Seiki) or literally "Space Century".
The Universal Century starts after humans begin to populate space after the population hits 9 billion, after construction of the first space colony side at Side 1 was completed. It has been the primary Gundam timeline.
The Universal Century science is practical and makes use of true science including the Lagrangian point in space, the O'Neill cylinder as a living environment, and energy production from Helium-3 (named Minovsky Physics).

==Correspondence==
In a pre-production memo, Gundam creator Yoshiyuki Tomino wrote that the first series takes place in 2066 AD, which would have the Universal Century calendar starting in 1988 AD. However, a "2079" date stamp in the first Gundam series's episode 26 and a "2087" date stamp in Zeta Gundam's episode 8 indicated a 2001 AD starting date. The date stamps were not included in the subsequent movie versions of these series, and these dates have since been contradicted by works not written by Yoshiyuki Tomino.
However, according to Gundam on ROBLOX's creator Nick De Leon, Universal Century 0001 would start as early as the year 2029 AD, this indicates that U.C. 0079 would correspond with the year 2108 AD. His information is based on how it took 24 years for the human population to reach from 6 billion to 7 billion from 1987-2011. This is a chart on how De Leon made his calculations on the start of the Universal Century.
Year	Population	 	Year 	Population
1987	6 billion 	+ 24 years	2011 	7 billion
2011	7 billion 	+ 12 years	2023 	8 billion
2023	8 billion 	+ 6 years 	2029 (U.C. 0001)	9 billion

Please note that this chronological history of the Universal Century is based on Nick De Leon's take of the Universal Century.
