A timeline for the events of the 2007 live action film Transformers continuity.

Timeline

 * ??BC - For two generations Lord High Protector Megatron and Optimus Prime co-ruled a peaceful Cyberton


 * ??BC - Megatron came to desire the Allspark's power for himself, secretly formed an army of his own, and a planet-wide civil war for controll of the Allspark began.


 * ??BC - The Battle of Tyger Pax: While the main Autobot forces hold the Decepticons back at Simfur, a smaller team under Bumblebee buys those in Tyger Pax the time they need to launch the Allspark into a woormhole in space. Megatron leaves Cybertron to follow it. Bumblebee losses the abillity to speak.


 * ??BC - After "countless solar spans" Megatron tracks the Allspark to Earth but is reckless in his lust for it, crashes through the arctic ice, and is lost.


 * 1897 AD - The National Arctic Circle Expedition commanded by Captain Witwicky discovers a great metalic "devil" burried in the arctic ice.


 * 1898 AD - Captain Witwicky, now blind and raving is confined to the Boston Secure Hospital. Two Victorian-style spooks with an interest in the "unusual" listen to his story, decide to cover it all up and embark on a governemnt sponsored expadition to check it out. If these bloaks aren't called Sector 7 already they will be someday soon. Witwicky's personal effects are sent on to his family.


 * 1899 AD - The proto-Sector 7 guys errect a dome above the partially excavated "Mega-Man".


 * 1902 AD - The Allspark is discovered underwater in Colorado.


 * 1969 AD - Sector 7, headed by Walter Simmons (known internally as "The Old Man"), attempts the first test flight of an Ice Man (as the "Mega Man" is now nicknamed) derived spacecraft (Ghost 1) using the Apollo 11 moon launch as cover. At the same time the first attempt was made to relocate the Ice Man himself from the Arctic to southern Nevada to be better studied alongside the likewise mysterious "alien cube". Signs seemed to point to Sector 7 begining to shift from being a secret US millitary opperation to a non-millitary-alliegned deep "black ops" program.


 * 2003 AD - A facillity in Colorado uses the Hubble Space Telescope to photograph Bumblebee landing on Mars.
