''Perry Rhodan'' is a weekly German [[Science Fiction]] [[Pulp Magazine]] series that has [[Print Long Runners|run uninterrupted since 1961]], with over two thousand five hundred issues released so far not counting reprints, books, and spinoffs. It was originally founded by Karl-Herbert Scheer (1928-1991) and Walter Ernsting (1920-2005), two German science fiction writers, and initially only conceived to run for thirty volumes. It is being developed and written by a ever-changing team of authors.
The series [[Zeerust Canon|begins
Over time (over the course of the entire series so far, more than three thousand years pass in-universe), Earth and its colonies evolve into a major power in their own right while other space-faring races lose some of their traditional influence. It is revealed that all the various human races of the Milky Way galaxy - such as Terrans and Arkonides (who had founded a short-lived colony called Atlantis on Earth roughly 8,000 B.C.) - are closely related and technically part of one species. They are descendants of the Lemurians, the First Mankind, who fled Earth 50,000 years ago during a galactic war with an alien species and settled in Andromeda.
