The Denver International Airport satellite accident, or simply the DIA satellite accident, was an incident that took place at Denver International Airport in the early 21st century, which resulted in a large number of casualties and the destruction of one of the First Civilization's Pieces of Eden – an Apple of Eden – which was held by Abstergo Industries at the time.[1] A transcript of a cell phone call outbound of Philadelphia implied that Daniel Cross was somehow involved in the events at DIA, and that the event traumatized him greatly.[2]
Dr. Warren Vidic was responsible for the preparation of the final report for the incident, which indicated that the Abstergo Project Lead at Denver had killed everyone there before the company's clean-up crew had arrived.
At least one civilian, believed to have been a baggage handler, witnessed the incident and escaped. By 4 September 2012, this survivor threatened to expose Abstergo's involvement in the event.[1]
Aftermath
The loss of the Piece of Eden meant that Abstergo Industries could no longer launch their Eye-Abstergo satellite on schedule. In order to find a new Piece of Eden, Abstergo scheduled the acqusition of Desmond Miles to place him in an Animus, which would ultimately allow them to obtain the locations of other potential replacements via his ancestor and Assassin Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad.[1]
Trivia
- The last four pieces of equipment that appeared in Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy had QR codes instead of images. Three of these stood for Cochetopa, Sisnaajini and Dzit fit gain, which are the Navajo names for mountains in Colorado. Additionally, these words are carved on the floor of Denver International Airport, and have served as a basis for multiple conspiracy theories. The fourth and final QR code stood for DIA.
- The phrase "going Denver", which was used by employees of Abstergo to describe when things had started to spiral out of control, was derived from the DIA satellite accident.
