Looking at the timeline on the FenWiki, apparently nothing happens between KandorCon and SOS-Con except a few things on Earth in 2010 and one runaway fenship in 2011. Obviously, that isn't true - at the least, CrystalCon is held. But what else of note happened?

(I rather need something to be going on in the background for the one-on-one game I'm running...)

SS Ciara launches on November 21, 2010. Causes a minor panic in the L5 region when Padraig O'Neill has a full blown "They're sending the Navy after me!" panic attack on the public frequency. The ship orbits twice while the inhabitants of cislunar space attempt to work out its motivations, its intentions, why it's still obviously armed and why a small island Navy is the first one into orbit - until Joseph Corcoran of the Pinafore decides to actually ask them. Everyone is surprised when they turn out to be just the usual 'ordinary fen with an unusual ship'. Ciara begins a regular charter route between Venus, Earth/Cislunar and Port Phobos and promptly steps out of the limelight.

Late 2011: SS Ciara takes the SOS-Dan from Yokohama to Stellvia - charging Haruhia Suzimiyah an exorbitant rate in the process. The SOS-Dan dissappear into the wider convention, while all aboard are thankful they'll never hear from her or have anything to do with her again.

Vulpine Fury is riding the wave from his successful exhibition of the "Kusanagi" telepresence. He's probably also beginning negotiations for the cat ears for that one Soap Opera's "Filmed in Australia" episode about a long-term character switching actors.

Joe Corcoran is likely working on getting the Pinafore ship-shape and Bristol Fashion.

At the Bristol Shipyards run by the Senshi in Mare Marginis, perhaps?

Let's see...

On 12 April 2011 the Soviet Air Force goes to Kennedy Space Center for Yuri's Night. In the process they hand off three 35 gallon barrels of unfiltered handwavium to the NASA ground crews; this is the stuff that'll be used in the Artemis refit.

The Soviets then spend the summer in the Epsilon Indi system, charting the planets and doing the flag-n-footprint mission. After that it's back to Sol to edit the documentary footage and back on the grind providing discount space science missions.
