Expedition

Astronauts Jim Parker and Michael Murphy, aboard the space shuttle Charger II, were wrapping up a routine mission. Just prior to re-entry, they encountered a mysterious cloud bank in space and were never heard from again. Two years later, a metal box was unearthed at a construction site in St. Louis. In it was a previously unknown, yet apparently authentic, journal of the historic Lewis and Clark expedition: written by astronaut Jim Parker. Did Parker and Murphy alter history, or did they save it?

Known to the Indians as the Lone Wanderer, Jim Parker roams the western plains, living among different tribes, trying to forget the loss of his family. But he cannot forget where he came from--the twenty-first century.

When time-warped, astronaut Jim Parker found another astronaut's flight jacket on a Comanche brave in 1860. He knew he was not the only one who had been thrown back in time. If the astronaut was alive, Jim had to find him.

In 2007, Astronaut Commander James Parker was lost in space. In 2009, a metal box was found with a diary by Parker living in St. Louis in 1807. In 2070, with the discovery of time travel, Astronaut Brian Harmon was sent back in time to find out what happened to Parker.

At the end of the Civil War, Jim Parker goes back to the Indians to prepare them for the future that only he knows. As an astronaut lost in a time warp in 2008, he has befriended Major Mark Barkley of the War Department, who calls on Jim for special projects.

He was a legend in his own time. Hated by some, loved by others, respected by all. He fought for his people against all odds. His name struck fear in the hearts of his enemies. Years after his death, his name in WWII was a battle cry for the airborne soldier, a shout of courage, of determination, of victory. The shout – GERONIMO! In 1877 Jim Parker's job was to find him. He had been recruited by General Crook for his knowledge of the Indians, but his friendship with an outlaw and a rebellious youth gave him problems.
