Omni–Tech, or Omnitech, was a company that specialized in terraforming, colonizing, and mining distant worlds for resources to send back to an overcrowded and polluted Earth.
History
By the end of the 21st century, Omni-Tech had spent around 10 billion credits and fifteen years to establish their outpost on the planet Mira Ceti 4. Their success rested on the unique combination of skilled professionals and "pioneers" who were civilians recruited for the labor. Amongst those civilian recruits were a number of political and religious groups like the Latter-Day Satanists, the Presleyans, the Partridge-Family Temple, and the most deranged of them all, a cult known as the Esoteric Brotherhood of Tulitu, who frequently caused friction at the outpost due to their habit of refusing to work like the other laborers.
The company didn't find out about the outpost's fate until over four years later when one of their a cruisers came to the colony. Upon investigating and finding everyone dead, they concluded unofficially that it may have been due to mass hysteria. Despite the tragedy that occurred, Omni-Tech issued a statement that it would be discouraged from trying to make the planet habitable.
As of 2186, Kim Bak served as Omni–Tech's CEO. Bak represented the company on the United Nations Interstellar Settlement Corps' Great Mother Mission aboard the colony ship UNCSS Ìyánlá.
