Thornton D. "TD" Barnes, a multifaceted individual with a background in military intelligence, surface-to-air missile and radar electronics, and aerospace, was born in Dalhart, Texas, and raised on a ranch near Clayton, New Mexico, and Dalhart, Texas. His childhood during World War II instilled a passion for technology exploration, which he carried into adulthood. After completing high school in Oklahoma, 17-year-old Barnes embarked on a ten-year military career, beginning with service in Korea as an intelligence specialist and Germany as a HAWK missile man. During his time in the Army, he honed his missile and radar electronics skills, focusing on countering Soviet threats. He also attended the Artillery Officer Candidate School before a military injury altered his career path.
Transitioning to aerospace pursuits, Barnes became involved in significant projects at NASA's High Range in Nevada, contributing to the X-15 program, atomic bomb tests at the Atomic Energy Commission's Nevada Proving Grounds, and the NERVA nuclear rocket project. He furthered his involvement in secretive projects by participating in the CIA's Mach 3 A-12 Project OXCART and stealth initiatives at Area 51.
Beyond his aerospace endeavors, Barnes founded and led an oil and gas exploration company for over four decades, delving into uranium and gold mining ventures. He has dedicated himself to preserving the history of Area 51, serving as president of Roadrunners Internationale and as the Nevada Aerospace Hall of Fame Director Emeritus. His contributions have been featured in documentaries on major networks like the National Geographic Channel, the Discovery Channel, the Fox News Channel, and the History Channel.
Barnes is also an accomplished author, with notable works about the Cold War, including "The Secret Genesis of Area 51," "The CIA ...
In a world gripped by ominous tensions, global strife and conflict mar the international stage. However, the looming specter of war doesn't confine itself to Earth's surface alone. A modern-day space race, reminiscent of the Cold War era, is unfolding on the cosmic frontier as nations vie for supremacy in the realm of space exploration.
The United States, with its illustrious history in space exploration, spearheads this endeavor with the ambitious NASA Artemis program. Russia, a longstanding pioneer in space exploration, charts an independent course by establishing the Russian Orbital Service Station (ROSS). Meanwhile, China rapidly ascended as a formidable space superpower, while the European Union, Japan, India, and the United Arab Emirates significantly advanced their space capabilities.
The Galactic One sets out on a mission to prepare Mars for future colonization, but a computer malfunction propels the nuclear-powered spacecraft beyond Mars, into the gravitational pull of an uncharted planet. This sends the vessel hurtling into a different galaxy, where it enters orbit around an enigmatic celestial body identified as Numerus X.
Desperate to reestablish contact with Earth, the stranded crew endures a five-year wait for a second spacecraft, carrying rescued Mars colonists who are determined to establish a new world that deviates significantly from their original vision.
SpaceCorp, supported by NASA and the US Space Command, dispatches a second spacecraft, armed and laden with settlers. As the two expeditions converge on Numerus X, a breathtaking journey unfolds, laden with concealed truths, mysteries, and the ever-present backdrop of geopolitical tensions that threaten to shape the destiny of both Earth and the newfound realm that lies beyond.
