Captain Qwark (in his massive ego) ended up changing his mind about supporting Artemis Zogg's re-election and decided to run to be the new Galactic President. Outraged by this, Zogg snapped when President Qwark then moved to shut down the Helios Program; due to his experiences with Tachyon and the Dimensionator, he believed that it was far too dangerous. Fueled with resentment, Zogg changed the aim of his program. Helios would be used to steal planets from various galaxies in order to construct a new galaxy for him to rule as President. This would be the Artemis Galaxy.
