Jupiter 17

The Jupiter 17 was in service to a group of Origin 3 Aligner scientists, with Marcus Make as the assigned pilot. Upon evacuation of the Normandy (after being transported to the Andromeda Galaxy), the Jupiter 17 was sucked into a wormhole that had formed close by. After being transported back in time to when the Asurans inhabited the near by alien world, the Jupiter 17 crashed with irreparable damage in a glacier. Pilot Marcus Wake was the only one to survive the crash. Marcus Wake was then rescued and brought to a medical facility orbiting the planet. An Asuran scientist named Jarvis told Wake that he was brought back in time by accident, as Jarvis was experimenting with creating a stable wormhole. Jarvis explained to Wake that they had been fighting the Kimera for over a hundred years and were on the verge of losing the war. Wake asked Jarvis to send him back to his time. Jarvis explained that he had been using an Aligner to power a device capable of forming wormholes for short periods of time. An unusual solar eruption from the near by sun occurred during Jarvis's experiment. The solar flare had tampered with Jarvis's calculations, leading to a stable wormhole to form. This in effect accidentally caused a stable wormhole to bridge across two points in time, using Jarvis's Aligner and the Aligner on the Normandy. Over the next several months, Jarvis tried recreating the accident that had brought Wake to the past. Jarvis was able to use a similar solar flare to create a partially stable wormhole. However, the solar flare was not what was needed and the wormhole collapsed before Wake could be sent back. Unknowingly to Jarvis, he had created the same wormhole that caused the disappearance of the Saturn 1 in 2024.
