* 3005: DRF subsidiary organization Public Health Department leader General Narain attempts to transfer his conciousness into an artificial body created using N5S data, but is stopped by DRF overlord Nyaldee. His attempts to reverse the zombification process of the N5S virus using data reverse-engineered by scientist Dr Wildenstein under his control fail when Nyaldee orders the release of a "reverse imaging polymer", a highly mutagenic compound able to meld flesh and machine (speculation: later used as base for megastructure construction fluid).

* 3005 - 4000: Megastructure overgrows earth. Netsphere developed. N5S and its derivatives are supressed by the government, but application to "download" structures from the net is developed (speculation: by the governing authority that would later form the basis for Safeguard) and stolen by the Order (speculation: perhaps an offshoot of Wildensteins/Narains faction).

** Note: Recent statements by author Tsutomu Nihei indicate that Biomega is not meant to share continuity with Blame!, et al., despite presence of Toha and other similarities. Timeline should be modified accordingly.
 
*** Speculation: While Blame! and Biomega do not take place in the same universe, Toha Heavy Industries is the same entity in both manga. Gravity furnace technology has been shown to be capable of facilitating travel into parallel universes.
 
 
* 7000: Megastructure has overgrown the Moon. War between Safeguard and the Order continues. Humans begin to migrate into the netsphere to escape the conflict.

*Holographic: (v9p154,156) A pitfall can look like a stair step, a doorway can look like a wall.  These are possibly not holographs at all but nanomachines made to look like solid surfaces until stepped on, and can fool even advanced sensors.
