Crux Explosion Date System

The Crux Explosion Date System is the date and time system used in the LUCL canon. It uses the explosion of Planet Crux as a reference point to base the timeframe of all stories and other events on within the canon. The abbreviations B.C. (Before Crux) and A.C. (After Crux) are used when referring using the date system. A zero is also typically placed in front of a single digit year.

Each year is a standard human year consisting of 12 months and 365 days. We don't typically get into the nitty-gritty of it all; the CEDS is primarily used to provide a loose organizing system for the entire canon.
