The Denver International Airport satellite accident, or simply the DIA satellite accident, was an incident that took place in an underground Abstergo Industries facility beneath Denver International Airport in the early 21st century, that resulted in a large number of casualties and the destruction of one of the First Civilization's Pieces of Edenan Apple of Eden.

Daniel Cross,[1] the Project Lead working on an experiment involving the Eye-Abstergo satellite, fell under the influence of the project's Apple of Eden and killed everyone in the facility before the company's clean-up crew had arrived. The artifact was ultimately destroyed. Dr. Warren Vidic was responsible for preparing the final report of the incident.[2]

At least one civilian, believed to have been a baggage handler at the time, found out about the incident. By 4 September 2012, this survivor threatened to expose Abstergo's involvement in the event.[3]

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 set out to acquire Desmond Miles as a subject for their Animus Project, since they had discovered that he possessed the genetic material that would allow them to obtain the locations of other potential replacements.[2]

In late September 2012, Daniel Cross was given a new assignment in Denver. At the time, Daniel was still traumatized by the incident and refused the assignment, and expressed his concerns with Dr. Sung.[4]
