Blackhole Assault

Report from B.H.A. Fleet Command, August 1, 2061:

Here is the present situation. The outpout on Defcon 2 has reported explosions in the area we sent space probes to. The probes are not responding to transmissions, and we've just received world that Akirov space carries have been seen in that area. Nuclear trails from the engines of the Akirov fleet are now being monitored by our defense satellite (B. H. A. Comsat), and the word is that the fleet is moving in the direction of the Solar System.

If the Akirovs are planning on attacking Earth, they couldn't have picked a better time. As you know, resources here on Earth are dwindling at a rapid rate. The probes we sent out had orders to search for new planets and planetoids with the resources we need down here. The Akirovs probably know this, and have decided to take advantage of our vulnerability. We defeated them in the Akirovian War almost 40 years ago, but they seem to thrive on warfare. It was just a matter of time.
