Henry Cabot Lodge Jr.

Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr. (1902-1985) was a United States Senator from Massachusetts and the U.S. ambassador to the Race under the Warren Administration.

It is most probably the case that Lodge did not know that the United States launced the missle attack on the arriving Colonization Fleet in 1962. Nonetheless, when the Race learned that the U.S. was responsible, it fell to Lodge to communicate to Atvar Warren's agreement that the Race to destroy Indianapolis rather than surrender its space-faring capability.
