Earth: A Rendezvous with Destiny by WeretheDespeateMeasuresODST105

Summary
Happening in an alternate time
And with a galaxy not so far away...
The 1960s as a decade was just as memorable:
The Thirty-Fifth President of the United States, John F. Kennedy, was never assassinated, Gus Grissom was the first man to land on the moon, and Uncle Sam as well as his allies were victorious in Vietnam.
But not all was well on Planet Earth: The United Nations and the Congolese alike had retreated from the breakaway State of Katanga. France also endured a significant loss of face and the New Frontier agenda had imploded in the wake of civil unrest.
Despite the lack of public confidence, President Kennedy was gradually redeeming himself by engaging with the Galactic Republic yet diplomacy in time brought attention, including those with malicious aims.
Now with the intent of conquest by the Sith Empire disclosed, the nations of the world were dragged into a war, one which was not sought, and circumstantially became co-belligerents of the Republic for the inevitable confrontation with the 'SPACE NAZIS', in a collision course that became a rendezvous with destiny.

Welcome to My World by WeretheDespeateMeasuresODST105

Summary
It is June of 1967.
The Army of the Republic of Vietnam successfully raised the South Vietnamese flag over Hanoi, the Maoist rebels were annihilated in China, and the Counterculture Movement was on its final legs in the United States according to the American Psychological Association.
But on the moon, astronauts Michael Collins, Neil Armstrong, and Edwin Eugene "Buzz" Aldrin Jr. made first contact with an alien civilization after implanting the Stars and Stripes into the lunar crust.
And apparently they thought the hit television series 'Star Trek' was somehow a documentary.
Now, the entire planet of Earth, in a historic moment, will be welcoming a diplomatic party from the Galactic Republic.

Summary
This spin-off will be undergoing an overhaul.
These two chapters were originally planned to be published in and intended for a future prequel of Earth: A Rendezvous with Destiny but out of the Christmas spirit I decided not to hold them back though of course everyone still needs to be patient for the prequel as the main tale still needs to be wrapped up first and foremost.
Merry Christmas, everyone!
