Unfortunately, on the day of his inaugural trip, a fleet of spacecraft belonging to a race of aliens known as Zentradi descends on the earth, and the Macross SDF-1, acting on his own, fires the entrance squad, causing one War intergalactic.

In an attempt to escape, Macross tries to throw themselves into the moon orbit, but the ship - just like the city where it was - is teleported to the regions of the space.
