Independence
Day: Resurgence (2016)
Twenty
years after the events of the first film, the international community recovers
and the United Nations creates the Earth Space Defense (ESD), a united global
defense program that serves as Earth's early warning system and the main
defense force using technology salvaged from remains of the alien forces, with
some military forces assembled on the Moon. However, the aliens were able to
send a distress signal to their other battalions before their final defeat
while others went into hiding elsewhere around the world. The aliens in deep
space receive the signal and send a larger and more powerful battle fleet,
threatening the human race once more.
