About the AGT

 Our Primary Activities

AGT Motto

The current civilization motto was originally used to assemble members in Louyen during Atlas Rises:

"Here it began, Here we became."

During the earlier Pathfinder era, there were some earlier mottos:

The first AGT motto coined by Hollowpoint_80 was:

"Per ardua ad astra - Through adversity to the stars"

 The second AGT motto was:

"The Many Become One"

The Motto and our Evolution

The change of the motto is not just cosmetic — it symbolizes the AGT’s evolution from a fledgling group into a lasting institution with deep roots in the NMS universe. The motto ties identity to place and history, emphasizing continuity and belonging rather than just adversity and unity.

“Here it began, here we became” is also about reminding Travellers that every new discovery continues the origin story.  Every new discovery ties back to our origin story, the AGT isn’t just cataloguing systems — it is a living narrative where each member’s contribution becomes part of the civilization’s identity.

The solitary act of exploration is transformed into something communal:

- Continuity: Every AGT prefix system name is a thread woven into AGT tapestry.

- Legacy: New members don’t just join a group; they inherit a story that began in 2017 and continues with each warp.

- Purpose: Discoveries aren’t random — they’re milestones in the ongoing journey of “Here it began, here we became.”
