It's also possible that the Markers themselves were responsible for the evolution of intelligent life on Earth as theorized by Unitologist militant, Jacob Danik.Īfter landing on a planet, the Markers will let out an electromagnetic signal originating from the Brethren Moons themselves and use it to attract the attention of any species native to the planet that they've landed on. It's unknown if the Brethren Moon knew that intelligent life existed on Earth and sent the Markers there or if they simply sent them in any direction across space.

Earth was one such world where a Marker landed on the planet 65 million years ago in prehistoric times and wouldn't be discovered until the early 23rd Century. Markers are created and sent throughout the universe and land on various worlds throughout the known universe. What is known is that they are a species of moon-sized creatures based throughout the known universe that consume all known life on various worlds that they come across using the signals and powers of the Markers.

The true origins and source of the Brethren Moon remain a mystery as it remains unknown where they truly came from.
