Synopsis

Drs. Chambers, Baqri, and Ahuja, all technically oriented Ph.D.s with a different set of skills, were drawn together in an unlikely alliance in a mysterious set of circumstances by an employer who was only identified as “HETC.”

They were offered, as a team, a very lucrative, month-long engagement to conduct research at HETC’s isolated underground headquarters in the California desert near the Nevada border. Their first assignment was to analyze the feasibility of a proposal to develop and deploy orbiting solar arrays as a future energy source to help address Earth’s rapidly growing and seemingly insatiable appetite for energy. The project is called “Helios,” after the Greek god of the Sun. All this was done under the umbrella of one of HETC’s four main projects — The Gliese Project — which was focused on Energy Technologies.

Their research culminated in startling conclusions, but the experiences they had during their stay at the underground facility left them with more questions than answers.
