Hydra Space Discovery was founded 2900. Founder Jacob Henderson and co-founder Paul Swanson wanted to start space exploration business together. Goal was to find valuable artifacts and gather information around the galaxy. At start it was two-man operation flying system to system and exploring planets. After ten years Jacob and Paul had come across many new places and plenty of old ones too. Income through space exploration was decent, but nothing big hadn’t come across them. However they did have few good asteroid belt locations in their data banks and with their savings they decided to invest on mining business and so corporation changed name to Hydra Industries in year 2915. They hired couple mining crews and business started going upwards.

At first Hydra Industries handled selling raw materials themselves. However after awhile volumes became larger and larger so they started using Bentley Trading Co as their primary trading partner. In year 2919 Hydra Industries bought Bentley Trading Co. The Mother company kept the name, but Bentley Trading Co was named Hydra Trading Co and it became subsidiary of Hydra Industries. In corporate buyout Stephanie Bentley, former CEO of Bentley Trading Co, became Head of Trading Department and CEO of Hydra Trading Co. Two-man operation became 50 people operation. In year 2925 young eager man named Mika “Villaovi” Kuusela joined corporation ranks. He began as a explorer in the company. At start he was one of the crew, but soon his skills was recognized by Jacob and Paul, so after 3 years Villaovi were commanding his own crew. He made crucial discoveries for the company and in the year 2932 he was appointed as a Head of Exploration Department. By the year 2935, there were over five hundred workers in the company. In the year 2935 Hydra Industries were able to buy Hammer and Steel Co, manufacturing corporation. Because Hydra Industries were divided to couple subsidiaries, Jacob Henderson thought that it would be best merge to one big corporation and so began corporate fusion in year 2935. Jonathan Marston became Head of Trading Department in the year 2935. In year 2936 fusion was complete and corporation was kept its name, Hydra Industries. Over 2000 people were working in corporation and business was blooming.

17th of June, 2937 was day of sorrow for the corporation. Jacob Henderson was found dead in his bed. His heart gave out. Corporation mourned its loss. As being Co-Founder Paul Swanson took over Jacob’s responsibilities. Soon after that everything started spiralling out of control. Corporation was losing credits and people in the company were unpaid. Dissatifaction started to rise up among the workers. People started leaving the company and they took everything with them what they could. Mining crews took ships. In the year 2940 Stephanie Bentley resigned and starter her retirement. Jonathan took over Stephanie’s responsibilities. However there wasn’t much to do. Most of the manufacturing plants were shut down and business partners stated that corporation didn’t have enough credit anymore. Mika started investigating matter. Corporation accounts were depleted by Paul Swanson and he was nowhere to be found. In the year 2941 Jonathan Marston resigned, because there wasn’t much to do in the corporation. Reputation was gone, accounts were empty, only thing left was Mika’s MISC Freelancer. Hydra Industries declared bankruptcy in year 2941. After that Mika registered new corporation to in his name and issued statement what was happened with the previous corporation. So began building of the Ursa Technological Solutions in the year 2942.
