人类——军事

一般来说，人类军用船只的前缀是SFS（SolForce Ship 太阳系部队舰只）。太阳系部队（SolForce)是人类联合军队的名称，该部队成立于与Hiver灾难性的第一次接触之后。其太空部队官方口号是拉丁语“Per Ardua Ad Astra"，意为”历经艰险，远赴众星“。而人类太空部队的非官方口号则是拉丁语“Repensum est Canicula”，意为“血债血偿”。太阳系部队的军官体制混合了中国和英国的军衔系统，以表示人类已经将传统观念的地理、人文、种族的分化留在身后的思想。由于现实情况影响，在21世纪期间军队的性别偏见在太阳系部队已经成为了不可能的事情。对于女性的厌恶已经成为了一个代表过去人类落后、愚蠢、无知的遗迹，同时也是对于人类软弱与腐败到这种为了满足一半成员的自负心，而去蔑视另外一半成员的行为能够被认可的愚蠢行径的见证。军官与从军的舰船组员的细分取决于舰船本身和其功能。但是一般来说，太阳系部队不主张随便赠与军衔。在这艰苦的时期，任何权利与尊重都要通过实力来争取得来——不管是指挥人员还是特殊领域的专家。例如在第二个动画宣传片里，深度探测驱逐舰Copernicus是由海军上尉 William Conrad Vance指挥的，而Omega行动部队的指挥官则是指挥官Blackwood。Blackwood的正式军衔是“行动部队指挥官”。这个军衔只在作战部队的太阳系部队在前线指挥舰队的海军准将身上起效，而海军准将则指的是其他负责本土行动、物流或者情报行动的类似军衔的非前线军官

在太阳系部队与Tarka部队第一次接触时，很多像“指挥官”一类的职位和“海军中校”或者“海军少校”一类的军衔已经被淘汰了

另外，在太阳系部队里，“海军陆战队士兵”与“士兵”完全没有区别，原因是在太阳系部队里海军陆战队士兵是唯一的步行部队，如果他们不是士兵的话，那就没人可以被称为士兵了。

Human——Military

Generally, the ship prefix for the Human military is SFS (SolForce Ship). SolForce is the name of the united Human military, formed after the devastating first contact with the Hivers. The official motto of the Space Corps is "Per Ardua Ad Astra"—"Through Hardship, the Stars". The unofficial motto of Humans in space is "Repensum est Canicula"—"Payback is a Bitch". SolForce employs a mingling of Chinese and British naval traditions in their ranking system, demonstrating how traditional geographical and personal divisions between many racial and cultural groups have been left in the past. The level of gender bias in the military seen in the 21st century is impossible in SolForce, given the circumstances. Misogyny is a relic of a day and age when humanity was ignorant, backward, and foolish—not to mention being soft and spoiled enough that it made sense to disenfranchise one half of the species as a sop to the ego insecurities of the other half. The breakdown of officers and enlisted crew depends very much on the ship and the mission. In general, though, SolForce is not liberal with the gift of rank. Times are hard and any kind of respect or authority has to be earned—this is true of command staff and specialists alike. For example, in the second cinematic trailer, the Deep Scan Destroyer Copernicus was commanded by Lt. William Conrad Vance while Task Force Omega was led by Commander Blackwood. Blackwood's official rank in full would be "Task Force Commander". This is what you call a SolForce Commodore (abbreviated Cdre.) when he or she is actually on the line and expected to command multiple ships in battle. The actual term "Commodore" is used for brass of similar rank who are not line officers, but serve in domestic, logistical, or intelligence roles.
Many rungs of the old ranking system are obsolete in SolForce by the time of Tarka First Contact, including the old position for "Commander" and the ranks of "Captain-lieutenant" and "lieutenant commander".
And a language usage note: In SolForce terms, there is absolutely no difference between the terms "Marine" and "Soldier". The SolForce Marines are the only ground-walking forces known to the human race. If they aren't soldiers, no one is.

Sol，指我们太阳系的恒星，太阳，也可以指我们的太阳系

与Hiver的第一次接触，新圣母玛丽亚事件，人类第一艘殖民驱逐舰（也是第一艘装备了节点引擎的太空舰）和太空港被击毁，人类几乎被灭族。发生于2408年1月10号，详情见后面翻译

与Tarka和Liir的第一次接触，指挥官Blackwood的Omega行动部队（巡洋舰级指挥舰Orion，油罐驱逐舰Vahalla，锤头鲨装甲驱逐舰Fulsom/Von Bak，以及深度探测装甲驱逐舰Copernicus，貌似还是裂变引擎，以高斯炮和红色激光作为武器）在Juntion星系附近空域与Tarka和Liir进行了第一次接触。当时Liir与Tarka在交战，但是Liir寡不敌众（Liir1CR1DE对抗Tarka 2CR4DE，Liir拥有X-ray激光和反物质电浆炮，Tarka则是粒子束、聚变电浆炮和导弹海）全军覆没，没来得及说话。Tarka则对Omega行动部队进行了攻击，只有深度探测驱逐舰Copernicus逃离交战空域，其他舰只均被击毁，但是Copernicus引擎部分被击毁，且反应堆泄漏，最终无人幸免。Copernicus舰长，海军上尉William C. Vance在临死之前录音讲述了整个过程并对广播设定了自动回放，后来太阳系部队找到了Copernicus残骸并意识到有两个新的种族的存在。这次事件对与后来海军上尉William C. Vance的父亲为了报复Tarka写下Via Damasco病毒，为最终Loa Collective的出现埋下了引子



人类——社会结构

政府

在与Hiver的第一次接触之前，人类世界的政府结构基本是以财团来划分的。

但是这些财团并非是一个整体，也不是众多互相争斗的势力。各个财团绝大多数的时候是独立运作的，但是他们有时候也会合作以实现某个共同的目标。

随着太阳系部队的作为一个军事、政治、社会一体的组织的崛起，旧世界财团的力量就黯淡了下去。太阳系部队对于整个人类控制的空域都要求提供大量的资源并要求拥有极大的执法权。人类母星上的政治纠葛很快就不再那么重要了。人类逐渐认识到了一个更为广阔的，包含了众多世界和种族的世界观。

以游戏的角度来说，人类势力的数量取决于以选择人类作为游戏势力的玩家数量来决定，各势力之间的关系也是由各玩家来决定。例如，两个人类玩家可以是分别代表太阳系部队或者是一个叛逆的殖民地联盟。游戏里的任何一个种族，只要玩家遵循一个不同的文化、政治或者军事的观点，都可以分裂成多个势力

但是总的来说，由于其他各族的存在，人类本身之间的种族歧视已经大大的减少了

思维模式

虽然人类与Liir都经历了一个粗鲁的觉醒，但是人类比Liir来说，从政治和感情上更好的应对这种情况。所有人类都对于“处于下风”一词十分熟悉，而且也明白当处于下风却依然能够胜利带来的那种特别的荣誉感

太阳系部队也是一心想要反败为胜，事实证明他们也有这个能力——就在Hiver那个星门舰队飞往地球的过程中，人类从一只羽翼未丰的雏鹰发展到了对于节点引擎的第一次测试

Human——Social Characteristics

Government

The Consortia represented a world government of sorts before the Hiver First Strike.
However, they were neither a single body nor a council of potentially warring powers. Each consortium would join with others or the whole to pursue some common goals—in other matters they would be largely independent.
With the rapid rise of SolForce as a political, social and military organization, the power of the old consortium governments is waning. SolForce demands tremendous resources and jurisdiction over the whole of Human-controlled space. The significance of politics on the Human home world is rapidly waning. Humans have developed a much more expansive worldview, in that it now encompasses many worlds and the presence of other races. (Sidenote: SolForce employs a mingling of Chinese and British naval traditions in their ranking system.)
Speaking in game terms, how many relevant Human factions exist in the universe depends on how many players on the map choose to play as Humans, and what relationship they choose to have with one another. For example: Two Human players on the map could represent SolForce Prime and a league of rebellious colonies. Any race in the game is capable of splitting into factions—one must simply assume a cultural, political, or military schism of some kind.
In general, one can assume that intra-Human xenophobia is going to be greatly reduced by having genuine xenomorphs to hate and fear.

Mindset

Both the Humans and the Liir have suffered from rude awakenings. However, Humans are better able to cope with the situation emotionally and politically. All Humans are familiar with the term "underdog", in some language. All Humans understand that there is a special honor in winning a contest when you were never the favorite.
SolForce fully intends to beat the odds. And they stand a fighting chance—in the time that it took that one Hiver nesting fleet to reach the Earth, Humans had gone from Kittyhawk to the testing of the first Node Drive.

人类——超光速引擎科技

人类于2371年发现了节点空间和节点引擎

这种亚空间的发现使得人类工程师得以利用宇宙间的重力压力裂缝。原理很简单：四维时空显然有一种晶体结构，而大型重力场，例如恒星和黑洞会造成时空连续的扭曲。而亚空间将这些扭曲现象同过时空的破口连接了起来。从根本来说，亚空间是一个连接两个重力场扭曲的维度

大型重力场通过亚空间的连接是通过两个重力“节点”的频率共振做到的。这种共振的成因必须用很深奥的弦理论来解释——用来解释节点线路的超弦理论的一部分——但是从实际角度来说，相比较两个节点在普通的空间里的距离，在亚空间里两个节点之间的距离被大大的压缩了。装备了节点引擎的人类舰船可以自由进出节点空间，以此来快速移动与两个节点之间。所以当舰船再次进入普通时空之后，就相当于他们在很短的时间里移动了很远的距离，达到了超光速。这种超光速移动方式在任意由时空裂缝连接的两点都可行。

虽然绝大多数节点线路是在恒星与恒星之间的，其他大型星体之间也可以产生小型的节点通道。例如当Blasky Yao Hsiang发现节点空间的时候，他成功的从木星离开节点空间。这是由于木星是一个体型合适的气态巨行星，而且对于时空的扭曲正好足够一个Ersatz试验型节点引擎系统以百分之一的生还率在节点空间移动。太阳系内的节点通道确实存在与大型星体之间，但是由于太危险，人类暂时没法利用他们。甚至连驱逐舰级大小的舰只都太庞大，无法进入这类节点通道

多个节点通道连接形成的一系列连接经常被称为“星流”，这个名字最早是由Blasky Yao Hsiang，第一个进入亚空间的人类，提出的。但是“星流”一词多少有些不准确——尽管星体之间的节点通道经常会连为一体，但是如果在正常时空里绘制航向的话，通过亚空间前进的人类舰船是不会以一个实体的形式通过这些空域。在爱因斯坦确立的时空里使用节点空间行动的人类舰船的唯一存在证据是一系列重力波脉冲。尽管一个十分敏感的探测器可以确定人类舰队的大小，但是这些舰船是无法在普通时空里进行拦截或者与之通信。另外这种节点空间链的一个问题是有时候有的恒星会没有通向别处的节点链。造成这种现象的原因是个别太阳系的重力场形状，毕竟节点空间开口是时空的裂痕，而有的时候重力场的形状会正好抵消这个裂痕


Human——FTL Technology

Humans discovered the node drive in the year 2371. (See: The Discovery of Subspace)
The discovery of the so-called "subspace" dimension has allowed Human propulsion engineers to take advantage of the gravitational stress fractures of the universe. The principle at work is simple: four-dimensional space time appears to have a crystalline structure, and massive bodies such as stars and black holes create distortions in the space-time continuum. These distortions are connected by breaches of space-time known as "subspace". In essence, subspace is an interstitial dimension, which connects one gravitational distortion to another.
Connections between massive bodies in subspace are formed by means of similar "resonance" frequencies between the two gravitic "nodes". The causes of this "resonance" cannot be fully explained without resorting to the esoteric extremes of Starstring Theory—a pop-culture reference to the part of Superstring Theory which governs node-lines—but the practical result is that the distance between any two nodes in subspace is highly compressed, relative to the positions these two Nodes might occupy in ordinary space-time. A Human vessel equipped with a Node drive can enter and leave subspace at will, and thus traverse the compressed distance between nodes very rapidly. When the vessel emerges from subspace again, it will have traversed a great distance in a short period of time, thus effectively achieving superluminal speed. This "faster-than-light" travel is possible between any two points which are connected by a fracture line.
While most Node lines occur between stars, other massive stellar bodies can also create small node lines. For example, when Blasky Yao Hsiang discovered subspace, he was able to exit the line at Jupiter. This is because Jupiter is a healthy sized gas giant and it does warp the fabric of spacetime just enough that a ersatz experimental node system could actually traverse a subline with the 100 to 1 shot of surviving entry and exit transition. System internal node lines do exist between high G enough bodies but so far they are so tenuous and so risky that they remain a curiosity more than an exploited resource. Vessels the size of a Destroyer are considered to be to large to be able to use these sublines.
Chains of nodal connection between stars are sometimes referred to as "starstreams", a term coined by the first subspace traveler, Blasky Yao Hsiang. However, the phrase "starstream" can be somewhat misleading; although the Node connections between stars do form a sort of chain, if plotted through ordinary space-time, a Human ship traveling in subspace will not be crossing those regions of space as a physical object. The only evidence of the ship's passage in Einsteinian space-time is a series of gravitational pulses, which indicate the presence of the vessel in subspace. Although a sufficiently sensitive scanner might be able to determine the mass of a Human fleet in motion or the number of vessels traveling together, those vessels cannot be contacted or intercepted in ordinary space-time. One quirk of these chains of nodal connections is that sometimes a star does not form node lines. This is due to the specific gravimetric geometry of a star system. As node points are essentially flaws in spacetime, sometimes this geometry cancels out the flawed points.

太阳系内节点通道 在一代里人类未能开发出能够穿梭于这种小型节点空间的舰船，但是二代里人类开发出了微型节点引擎，并应用在了节点战机上，使得利用这类太阳系内小型节点空间成为了可能

亚空间的发现

第一个进入亚空间的人类，Blasky Yao Hsiang，是一名时任太阳一号科研空间站的恒星物理学家。2371年年初，Blasky被指派用一种试验型的高能共振光束系统来进行第一次对太阳的内核的深层扫描。这个设备被加载在了科研站的一个飞行器的一个环形的感应器阵列上，并由Blasky驾驶，另外十八名科研组成员则在空间站上进行观测。

但是当Blasky开始扫描的那一瞬间，飞行器丛空间站所有的探测器上消失了。由于担心飞行器发生了灾难性的事故或者失去了动力，科研站迅速派遣了救援队，希望能赶在飞行器坠入日冕之前救回Blasky和贵重的仪器。

经历了几分钟疯狂的搜救行动之后，太阳一号空间站收到了一个来自于Blasky飞行器的微弱信号。这位科学家冷静的声音来自于80千万公里以外——在几秒钟内，他居然奇迹般的被从近日轨道送到了近木星轨道。

在接下来的两个小时里，正当Blasky的同事们竭尽全力寻找救援他的方法时，Blasky向附近绕木星轨道的风暴监控探测器发送了一系列的通信。这些段通信现在在每年节点空间理论课程都要向第一年新生播放，对于那些从来没有听过这段录音的人们来说，他们相当的感人。在Blasky坠入木星大气层的过程中，他向探测器发送了他在亚空间里详细的经历，描述了一个重力流将他以极高的速度拉离近日轨道。他表示很后悔耗费了大量燃料来对抗这个重力流，不然的话他应该会被送到更远的地方

当Blasky描述了所有关于亚空间的信息之后，他计算了他所用掉的燃料和移动的方向。他的粗略计算表明这股重力流来自于附近的天狼星359号恒星，后来的测试也证实了他的计算——天狼星359是距离太阳系最近的节点通道。

在仔细检查他包括他检测使用的能量值在内的所有数据之后，Blasky将飞行器的追踪器装在了飞行器的数据库上并弹射了出去。在这之后的几分钟，Blasky坠入了木星压力巨大的氢海中牺牲了。这项神奇的发现与这个聪明的科学家的失去引发了全球性对于回归载人空间探索的争论，在这次事件之后的几个月里，人们一直在争论如果当初ISA没有由于经费裁剪而将木星空间站替换成无人探测器，Blasky就不会牺牲。

The Discovery of Subspace

The first subspace traveler, Blasky Yao Hsiang, was a solar physicist assigned to the Sol Prima research station. Early in the year 2371 Blasky was assigned to perform the first penetrating scan of Sol's deep core using an experimental high-energy resonance beam. One of the station's hardened research pods had been fitted with the ring-shaped scanning array; the pod was launched from the station with Blasky aboard to operate the controls while the rest of the station's 18-man crew eagerly monitored their screens.
The moment that Blasky's scan was initiated however, the tiny research bell disappeared from view and was no longer detectable by any means available to the Sol Prima monitoring station. Fearing that the scientist had suffered a catastrophic equipment failure or lost power the station quickly dispatched a rescue team to search for his bell and the precious scanning array, hoping to recover the man and his equipment before a decaying orbit could drop both into the sun's corona.
After several minutes of frantic scan-and-search, Sol Prima received a feeble signal from Blasky's pod. The scientist's calm voice was heard from a distance of over 800 million kilometers; in less than ten seconds he had been miraculously transported from a close orbit of Sol to a close orbit around the nearby gas giant Jupiter.
For the next two hours, as his team of solar scientists desperately attempted to find some means of reaching and rescuing their comrade, Blasky made a series of burst transmissions to the nearby Storm Watch probe in Jupiter's orbit. The full-length recording of these transmissions is still played to first-year students of Node mechanics and can be a highly emotional experience for those who have never heard them before. As Blasky's probe slowly descended into Jupiter's atmosphere the scientist gave a highly detailed account of his experience in subspace, describing the gravitational "current" which seemed to pull him away from Sol's orbit with blinding speed. He expressed his regret in having expended so much fuel fighting this astounding gravimetric pull and speculated that his pod might have traveled much further had he not engaged thrust to fight the current within the "starstream".
When Blasky could add no further detail to his description of subspace, he calculated the volume of fuel he had expended in resisting the gravitational flux and the distance and direction he had traveled. His tentative conclusion was that the force acting upon his ship had been the gravitational pull of the nearby star Wolf 359; later experiments in subspace travel proved him correct as Wolf 359 was the nearest node in Sol's subspace chain.
After carefully re-checking his data, including the level of energy he had used to initiate his solar scan, Blasky ejected his data core with the ship's tracking beacon attached. He died several minutes later in the crushing depths of Jupiter's liquid hydrogen sea. The amazing discovery and tragic death of this remarkable scientist became the planet-wide impetus for a return to manned space exploration; it was often argued in the months immediately following that the budget cuts which had forced ISA to place an unmanned probe in Jupiter's orbit, rather than a manned research facility, had cost Blasky Yao Hsiang his life.
