#thunderbird 5

"Thunderbird 5 is International Rescue's space station and the heart of the communications network. Maintained in a secret geostationary orbit high above the earth, John Tracy and his younger brother Alan take turns to man this satellite, with each staying abord for a month at a time. Between them, they maintain a constant vigil across the globe. Through the use of sophisticated monitoring equiment, they are able to hear every radio transmission being broadcasted with special special filters attuned to messages of distress in any language. Born on the 8th of October, 2040, 25-year-old John Tracy was educated at Harvard and followed in his fathers footsteps to become an astronaut prior to his involvement with International Rescue. An electronics expert with a degree in laser communication, John is the quietest and most Intellectual of the Tracy brothers. Slighter in build than his siblings, he is tremendously lith and graceful. As space monitor for International Rescue, stationed aboard the massive space satellite Thunderbird 5, John has ample time on his hands to indulge his favourite pastime of astronomy. Four astronomy and outer space textbooks have been published bearing his name and his incessant space searching lead to the discovery of the Tracy quosor system." -text from the box that thunderbird 5 came
