Terra Prime was formed long before the first Warp 5 ship, Enterprise NX-01, left Space Dock. The organization, however, stayed relatively passive and discreet; however, after the Xindi attack on Earth, the organization became exceedingly more active and had more followers. The attack on Earth's embassy on the planet Vulcan also increased their public support.

Paxton was in charge of the mining operation of the Orpheus Mining Colony located on the moon, which relocated to Mars, taking over a verteron array just before the signing of a charter to create a coalition that eventually led to the formation of the United Federation of Planets.
