European scientists make a breakthrough in weapons tech: Sliver weapons. Used with ultradense slivers of synthesized crystal for a kinetic impact, these weapons are far more easy to use, produce, and maintain than pulse rifles. They immediately set about arming their forces with the new weapons.

The European scientists working on the interstellar issues too have had a breakthrough of sorts: They have found antimatter. Currently unharvestable, but still very much there. They have found that gamma radiation, when focused into a tight beam, can produce this antimatter for spectacular results. This information was not used in any way to pull pranks on the other scientists, of course.
