A Key Event

The reopening of the Ley Lines of Earth refers to the event that took place on March 8th, 1949 that involved several meta-humans and a being known as Space Dandy that inadvertently reopened the Ley Lines on Earth, as well as accelerated meta-human mutations across the globe. This even is said to have advanced humanity by three centuries in a single night.

A chain reaction involving Surge, Space Dandy, and an alien power source known as crytorium created a blast that ignited in the Earth's atmosphere. The excess energy poured into the Earth's Ley Lines, re energizing them after centuries of inactivity. The remains of this energy spread throughout the planet and atmosphere, igniting the meta-human gene and accelerating humanity.
