The Interacademy Scientific Exchange is an agreement between the U.S. and U.S.S.R. enabling scientists to visit & work with each other. The U.S. has interest in reactor #5 opening soon at Chernobyl.
Description:
22-APR-1986: You are an agent within the United States government. You have been recalled from your current assignment for a secretive meeting at Frederick Sherman Field (Naval Auxiliary Landing Field) in San Clemente, California. Because of your particular knowledge, skills set, and previous experiences in life someone higher up in the inner workings of government has taken an interest in you. They have managed to get you on a tour of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Pripyat, Ukraine, U.S.S.R. in the name of the Interacademy Scientific Exchange. Your stated mission is to observe the construction of the new #5 reactor scheduled to come online soon. However, all is not as it seems in the Red Empire.
Officially, the Apollo Program ended in 1972. Unofficially, Apollo 19 was a classified lunar mission, launched amongst fears of Soviet activity. What waits on the Moon was never meant to be found.
Description:
1974 - You've been selected for a mission that does not exist. Under extraordinary secrecy the United States authorizes Apollo 19, a classified lunar mission hidden under Cold War bureaucracy and National Security concerns. Recalled from your duties, you're briefed by NASA officials who speak carefully, omit details, and make clear this mission will never be acknowledged. Apollo 19 exists to investigate anomalous telemetry & inconsistencies recovered from earlier missions. However, concerns persist the Soviet Union has conducted undisclosed lunar operations, forcing NASA & U.S. intelligence to confirm what, if anything, was left behind on the Moon. As you sail further from Earth, radio delays turn to silence, and it becomes clear your mission is not about discovery, but verification. What was found on Luna’s surface was buried for a reason. Some truths were never meant to return home.
1958 - the US Navy formed Task Force 88 to conduct Operation Hot Gate, a mission officially considered to be scientific research. Beneath the facade however, lay secrets no one could fully comprehend.
Description:
You’ve been unexpectedly recalled from your current assignment to a classified mission briefing at Naval Station Roosevelt Roads. Deep within the Navy's inner workings an enigmatic benefactor recognized your unique skills/experience and secured your spot on this top-secret task. The clandestine assignment code named Hot Game carries an official mission: observe & report scientific research in the expanse of Antarctica. However rumors of unexplained phenomena in the Antarctic Convergence, unexplored dangers below the ice, & unspoken tensions among the crew point to a mission far beyond the boundaries of scientific inquiry. What secrets lie hidden at the frozen edge of the world? What forces have drawn the Navy to this desolate frontier? As icy winds and shadowed waters of the Southern Ocean close around you, one thing becomes certain: Not all missions return with answers - or survivors.
