Another Summary

See Future Historical References.

After Such Knowledge
A demon possibly inspired Rogen Bacon.
Demons definitely win Armageddon.
Satan, now God, reverses Armageddon.
Satan possibly created the planet Lithia, which is reached with the Haertel overdrive.

Demons are definite in fantasy but only possible in historical fiction and sf. This demonic/Satanic sequence begins with Roger Bacon, founder of scientific method, and ends with two scientific achievements, the FTL Haertel overdrive and the instantaneous CirCon radio.

The Haertel Scholium
Haertel flies to Mars.
A base is established on Mars.
Garrard test flies a Haertel overdrive ship to Proxima Centauri.
After Garrard, Arpe discovers parapsychology in the microcosm.
Parapsychology unites the galactic Central Empire.

This Haertel Scholium sequence begins with Haertel but ends with interstellar travel on the Standing Wave, replacing both the Haertel overdrive and the Arpe Drive.

So far, there have been two climaxes: the destruction of Lithia and conflict with the Central Empire. The two other Haertel overdrive timelines culminate in transgalactic utopias.
