2020s-Many countries start setting up defense systems in space and soon people settle in space the moon, space, and Mars permanently.
Early 2030s-Many space programs are shut down due to cut backs on spending for an environmental crisis.
Late 2030s-As quick as the human race recovered from the war they did with the environmental crisis. Spending goes back on track.
2040s-2080(Present-Day)-By 2040 one million have settled outside of Earth. People and eventually A.I. and mutants settle on Mars, space, and the moon. Wars happened and casual cut backs in spending occured but population growth goes well. Now there is 10 million people that have settled outside of Earth. On Jan. 30, 2070 a colony originally settled by the U.S. and then joined up with the Colonies of Space(an economic union) split up and became known as US Space owned by the United States. Many people have disputed though whether or not to join back with the Colonies of Space or stay with the U.S.
