NotesEdit
- J. Michael Straczynski indicated that the premature nova of Earth's sun was caused by an enemy force opening jump points within the sun to decrease its mass.
- According to Straczynski, humans and Minbari have reached a First One-like existence as beings of light a million years in the future. Narns and Centauri have not, but are not extinct.
- Straczynski confirmed that "New Earth" is the Vorlon homeworld.
