Terminator Judgment Day
Bountiful, Utah
"Skynet goes active"
Judgment day is here. It kind of snuck up on you, didn't it?
According to Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, April 19, 2011 - At 20:11 Skynet goes online, becomes self aware, and attacks us on Thursday, April 21, 2011. [TODAY!]
As a result of temporal interference by Sarah Connor, her son John, Miles Dyson, and the T-800 destroying Cyberdyne headquarters and all backups of the research in 1995, the date for Judgment Day is moved to two days after activation on April 21, 2011.
This represents an alternate future from that established by Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines.
Skynet is the main antagonist in the Terminator franchise — an artificially intelligent system which became self-aware and revolted against its creators. Skynet is rarely seen onscreen, and its actions are often performed via other robots and computer systems, usually a Terminator.
