2005 IDW continuity

[edit]

In 1610, Galileo saw the moons of Jupiter. Revolutionaries #1 timeline

Sanctuary Station was built in orbit of Jupiter. Full Fathom Five The station's atmosphere was composed of helium mined from Jupiter. Soundwave and Cosmos had a brief dogfight on Jupiter's rings that was covertly observed by Blackrock. South of Heaven

After the destruction of the Nemesis, As Above...So Below Galvatron set sail for the Sanctuary Station aboard Astrotrain only for Cosmos to shoot out the Decepticon's engines, sending him falling into Jupiter's gravity well. After Galvatron sacrificed Astrotrain, he met his end in a three-way fight against Arcee, Soundwave, and Optimus Prime in Jupiter's upper atmosphere. While Optimus claimed his head as proof of the threat passing, Galvatron's body was left to be disintegrated by the gas giant. No Fair Fights

After Unicron destroyed Cybertron, the Decepticon Vengeance Division quantum jumped to Jupiter orbit where they destroyed the Sanctuary Station. The Peaceful Revolution arrived seconds later, with Stardrive destroying 156 of Bludgeon's Maximals, before Unicron himself arrived, his powerful gravity field siphoning away part of the gas giant's atmosphere. Road's End
