The year is 1999. Gridlocked streets spew noxious fumes and commuter shootings are common. National, “Safe Driving Days,” freeze city traffic. Citizens are hostages of a hostile environment. The world’s lakes, rivers and oceans are stagnant pools. Water is the most precious commodity. Ice sectioning hews forty ton blocks of ice from the polar ice-caps and transports liquefied water in behemoth tankers once used for oil.

In our last episode Orion 1, a re-outfitted Space Shuttle, secretly left for Mars to search for water. The mission succeeded but an exploration crew sent to the red surface mysteriously disappeared.

Back on Earth U.S. President DeWitt confessed to a stunned world that Orion I was not orbiting the Moon as previously announced but was in fact, orbiting Mars. The President’s activities provided fuel for the most powerful personality on radio in America, Tosh Rimbaugh, who castigated DeWitt on his nightly radio shows for her covert and reckless activities. Rimbaigh initiated a, “Depose DeWitt Club.”

As people stand helpless pondering their fate, Ronald Ratken, the worlds richest man deploys his own space ship to Mars in a further attempt to increase his stranglehold over the earth’s water supply.
