Pearl Harbor

Pearl Harbor was a lagoon and harbor on the Hawaiian island of O'ahu, in the Pacific Ocean on Earth.
During the 20th century, it served as a base for the United States Navy. The base was the site of a devastating attack by Japan in 1941, which was directly responsible for the entry of the United States of America into World War II. () 
The movie From Here to Eternity, starring actor Burt Lancaster, depicted the events of this attack. Benny Russell encountered a newspaper vendor who preferred these war stories to science fiction. ()
The attack would still be regarded more than four centuries later as the "stage for a bloody preamble to war," comparable to the attack on Station Salem-One. ()
