====History==== The Silicates were created to be servants and soldiers, but they developed intelligence and sentience after they were infected by the ''Take a Chance'' computer virus created by Dr. Ken Stranahan (name from the show's visual effects supervisor). This sparked an AI rebellion by the Silicates, who attempted to free themselves from human rule. The war continued for many years, until the Silicates captured military spacecraft and escaped into space. As they went into space, the Silicates suffered from a lack of maintenance which caused problems for them. The remnants of the Silicates that fled into deep space serve as mercenaries and actually aid the alien "[[Chigs]]" in their war against humanity.
