Fan Casting Buck Rogers In The 25th Century

A runaway kid is frozen when the experimental zeppelin he has taken control of crashes at the North Pole in 1939; while in 1984, a US Air Force captain is launched aboard a one-man exploration starship Olympus IX and is frozen as well by a freak mishap running into a frozen meteorite storm. The two are thawed out by Earth people hundreds of years later in 2491 A.D. The two are introduced to life on Earth and across the Solar System of the 25th Century. A secret government conspiracy that the captain tried to infiltrate and blow the whistle on initiated a nuclear first strike against Soviet missile silos in Siberia, Antarctica and the Arctic. In repentance for their actions, the nations of the world banded together to make the future better in all aspects. While they were setting out to colonize other worlds and parts of the Solar System and beyond, the criminal element waited in the shadows and sought the help of the dominant galactic powers to challenge and usurp the power their enemies had. Now the race is on to see which side shall rule the galaxy...
