Limited Time Events, or "LTEs" for short, are events that are run by System Era, sometimes in benefit of real life charities, or just to give players rewards for playing certain parts of the game. They give cosmetic rewards, as well as care packages of different useful items, depending on the LTE. Planets that the LTE may be completed on show an aurora over the northern pole.
