Protection Planet Earth was an ultimate S.H.I.E.L.D. project designed to protect the Earth from all possible threats.

It started in 2009 with the first phase, known as Avengers Initiative, to form a team composed of powerful beings that would respond to any dangerous global threats which are too great to be dealt with on Earth.

The Initiative was scrapped by the World Security Council after the Battle of Puente Antiguo in favor of a weapons development program known as the second phase. Phase 2 focused on creating weapons of mass destruction using the Tesseract. The studying was done in the top secret subterranean research facility located in an unspecified location in the Mojave Desert, known as Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S..

After the Destruction of Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S., the Battle of New York and the removal of the Tesseract from Earth in 2012, Phase 2 was effectively ended.
