Since the 1970s, the Dharma Initiative ran successfully, testing in all their scientific fields. The Swan was and still is a electromag station. A disgruntled scientist, however, was desperate to leave the island. So, he somehow used to computer to contact the outside world. THe U.S. army picked up the transmission, and they sent a force to the island.
The scientists had now figured out that the scientist had contacted them. They turned their experiments against the force, and it was nearly obliterated. The remains of it retreated to abondoned facilities. This happened in 1985. Quote from Ana Lucia, "Where do you think they got it? Its at least 20 years old." (Not direct) 2004-20=1984. That fits in with my approximate timeline.
The Dharma Initiative could not find these people, so they created a monster to track them down. This monster could not be controlled, however, and turned on them. The initiatve was destroyed, its facilities abdondoned, its participants killed or maimed. Word of the incident spread to its funding, The Hanso Foundation, and they withdrew their funding. The monster was running wild, other experiments were set free, yet the Swan was unharmed. After the disgruntled scientist contacted the world and before the Army came, the other scientists instigated the computer to only be used to enter the code, so no one would be able to contact the outside world.
Also, the electromag shield was set up over the island so no other military expeditions would make their way onto the island. With that shield gone, who knows what will happen? The Others eliminate those who they deem as threats by abducting them and turning them into Others.
