Centaurus Gate is a scifi themed RPG based on a rebuild of WEG's Star Wars D6 game and inspired heavily by Farscape.
It was early in the Great Human Expansion, when they discovered the Gate (then called the Artifact, as they had no idea what it was, or what it did). The Artifact orbited between the two stars of Alpha Centauri, a ring almost as large as a planet. It proved to the naysayers that there was other intelligent life in the universe.
The home galaxy of Humans and Earth in 3111.
Galaxy IC-1101 renamed Centaurus after the gate that leads there, circa 3111 HY (Human Years).
