In the civilian sector, Garret created the "Neptune Network" on Dalton. This network of seismic sensors has been gathering data since [[3058]], and vulcanologists and geologists have been poring over the information. The goal of this project is to identify why Dalton's extensive earthquake and volcanic activity stopped in [[2500]]. The team hopes to discover if the earthquakes were a fluke event or part of an as-yet-unidentified cycle that will bring more earthquakes to the world in the future.

Garret SatComm was one of the largest suppliers of electronic equipment to the Free Worlds League Military. They had also branched out into a few selected civilian applications.

Overview[edit]

Garret SatComm had been producing high quality targeting and tracking systems for the Free Worlds League for many years. The quality of its products were known throughout the Inner Sphere, making their products popular with every military force. In the mid-thirty-first century, they expanded beyond their customary products and started building ECM Suites, Target Acquisition Gear, and Active Probes. These devices kept Garret SatComm at the pinnacle of the industry.[1]

Rather than relax at the top of the industry, Garret had been pouring money into new research and development projects. They were known to have worked on sensors used in the Mimetic Armor used by the Purifier Adaptive power armor, and reliable reports suggested that they'd been a key player in creating the sensor suites used by the FWLM WarShips.[1]

In the civilian sector, Garret created the "Neptune Network" on Dalton. This network of seismic sensors had been gathering data since 3058, and volcanologists and geologists had been poring over the information. The goal of this project was to identify why Dalton's extensive earthquake and volcanic activity stopped in 2500. The team hoped to discover if the earthquakes were a fluke event or part of an as-yet-unidentified cycle that would bring more earthquakes to the world in the future.

The Dalton plant took no damage during the Jihad and was operating at full speed in 3079.[2]
