   The group who blew up the Cant (who were associated with the people who   
   showed up on Eros and infected it with protomolecule) is trying to start a   
   war between the UN and Mars.  They blew up the Cant, which stirred up the   
   Belters, then blew up the Donanger, a Martian Navy ship, to make it look   
   like it was the UN that was behind everything.   
      
   I am not sure it mattered that it was the Cant.  I think they were looking   
   to blow up whoever answered the distress call in order to start a conflict.

   The invaders took Julie aboard their ship.  She was taken aboard the same ship   
   that blew up the Cant.  The invaders were apparently transporting some of   
   the protomolecule somewhere.  It must have somehow got loose on their ship and   
   eventually killed/consumed them all.  I think they knew what it was but   
   maybe didn't know how careful they needed to be with it, OR it could be   
   that they were part of the experimentation with it and didn't know it.   
      
   I didn't pick up on this the first time, but there must have been 5 of   
   those stealth ships.  The one that the Scopuli was looking out for, that   
   took Julie hostage, blew up the Cant, then was infected and abandoned on   
   that rock.  Then there were the four that attacked the Donanger.  At least   
   one of them survived that battle, I think.   
      
   That is a large, private Navy.

   Originally, and some of the seasons were more than a year apart.  :O  :D
