Captain Bruno J. Global, an Italian-descended high-ranking officer in the United Nations Spacy, rose through military ranks during the Unification Wars. He commanded the U.N. Navy submarine *Marco Polo* under Brigadier General Takashi Hayase, executing covert operations that included masquerading as Anti-U.N. Forces to seize supplies. Later captaining the *Oberth*-class space destroyer *Goddard*, he ordered the inaugural use of reaction weaponry in ship-to-ship combat to eliminate the hijacked *Tsiolkovsky* returning from Mars Base. In March 2003, he married Japanese matchmaking acquaintance Miho Global through efforts by Takashi Hayase and his wife. The childless couple formed a close, quasi-parental bond with Hayase’s daughter, Misa Hayase. By 2009, Global attained Brigadier General rank and assumed command of the SDF-1 *Macross* space fortress. During its launch ceremony, he advocated peaceful first contact with potential aliens. When Zentradi forces attacked, he initiated an untested spatial fold maneuver that stranded the *Macross* and part of Macross City’s civilian population at the solar system’s edge, resulting in Miho’s loss during ground combat. Throughout Space War I, Global commanded the *Macross* during its return voyage to Earth. His leadership balanced strategic pragmatism with concern for civilian welfare, prioritizing evasion over direct engagement against Zentradi forces and frequently heeding tactical counsel from First Lieutenant Misa Hayase. A catastrophic failure of the ship’s experimental omnidirectional barrier caused massive casualties in Ontario, straining relations with U.N. command and prompting the *Macross*’s temporary exile. Globally exhibited an old-fashioned demeanor and aversion to attention, often smoking a pipe gifted by his wife to aid concentration—a habit bridge operator Shammy Milliome contested due to regulations. He authorized the landmark marriage between Zentradi defector Milia Fallyna and human pilot Maximilian Jenius, recognizing its potential for peace. Post-war, Global shifted to administrative roles in the reformed United Nations Government, spearheading reconstruction and human-Zentradi coexistence initiatives. His most notable contribution was designing the Humanity Seeding Project (alternately Human Emigration Project), a large-scale space colonization program to ensure human survival against extraterrestrial threats. Achieving full Admiral rank by 2014, he served as U.N. Representative and appointed Misa Hayase as captain of the colonization flagship SDF-2 *Megaroad-01*. His legacy included the "Bruno J. Global Space Port" and the SDFN-class fortress *SDFN-4 Bruno J. Global*, flagship of the 117th Research Fleet until its 2048 destruction by the Vajra on Gallia 4. His character design influenced *Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water*'s Nemo, and later *Macross* productions like *Frontier* featured characters and vessels echoing his likeness or name.
