Picard in the gala museum
The Europa Gala was a gala held for the Europa Mission astronauts days ahead of their launch on April 15, 2024. It was a celebration of this event and its place in the history of manned space flight. Security was tight for this event, with security guards at checkpoints and in a security room monitoring the movements of the gala goers. The venue for this gala was held at a hotel in Downtown Los Angeles. Outside the main event room was an exhibition hall with displays covering earlier Human achievements in space exploration.
On that day, Jean-Luc Picard and his group infiltrated the event, with the goal of convincing Europa Mission astronaut Renée Picard to go aheaad with the launch. After their mission was successfully completed, Jean-Luc Picard was badly injured when Dr. Adam Soong hit him with his car in a failed attempt to murder Rene Picard.
The next day, Jean-Luc Picard was questioned by FBI Agent Martin Wells about what his group was doing at the event. The agent had photographs of all members of the group at the gala. (PIC: "Fly Me to the Moon", "Two of One", "Mercy")
