2248 Incident

The '2248 Incident', also known to some as 'the Revolution', refers to the coup led by a terrorist group in the year 2248. This unknown group bombed the Peru facility, which linked Geneva in 2009 via the Window, and stole technology and research relating to time-travel. Using this, they went back in time to some point between 2009 and 2248, and altered their own history. The scientists observing the Window in 2009 witnessed a drastic change to the future; by changing their past, the terrorists transformed the world of 2248 from a peaceful era of scientific endeavour into a warzone. Following this incident, it was decided in 2009 that the Window had to be closed, sealing off the link to the future forever.
It has been speculated that Cassius and Jacob Dorody were among those responsible; this has been more or less confirmed by Dorody himself.
