ERD

Backstory
After the discovery of extra terrestrial technology in 1988, The ERD (Extra-Terrestrial Research Division) was established to research the Katinoa Device and later the Xeron Device. After years of research on the Katinoa Device, the ERD ceased operations but later re-activated in 2018. After the formation of the EGC (Earth Galactic Command) in early 2019, The ERD became a sub-divison of the command tasked with researching technologies bought back by the exploration teams of the EGC.
