FINDING DOCTOR X

My father was a biohazard scientist, he did research and clinical trials in microbiology. He was an independent contractor and did project work for different governments all over the globe. He disappeared in 1997. This is my quest on finding the truth about my father. What happened to him? Is he still alive?

Classified research footage: In the 1970s an unknown institute of virology, shot a classified research film on 8mm – a biohazard experimentation on the Ebola virus. I found the old film reel in my father’s safe after his disappearance. I digitized it.

Project Octopada: I received a message from an unknown Danish scientist, who claims he has knowledge about my father’s classified work and his mysterious disappearance in 1997. We met at a deserted location – I documented it on my iPhone.

 

Latitude 50.902065 Longitude 6.417052: I have taken a look at the flash drive I received from the weird Danish scientist, I encountered awhile ago. It contains a text file and a worn video clip – perhaps the footage of clinical trial number 195. The flash drive took me to Germany, somewhere in the Ruhr district.

PART ONE OF THE BISCHOFFS

He is a retired quantum physicist. He is a spacetime fugitive from the year 2040. He is a wanted whistleblower. He is living incognito in 1986. He is on a mission to save the universe. The genius quantum physicist is working for the Department of Defense on a highly classified project, codenamed Hourglass. It all began with hijacked airplanes on September 11th, 2001; it was the beginning of the end. In 2003, the US government initiated an invasion of Iraq to retrieve a legendary artifact, known as a Stargate. To save the universe, the physicist travels back in time, hunted by the corrupted Kopfmann administration. He records a videotape in 1986, revealing classified information, that will create a non-destructive paradox in spacetime and prevent doomsday in 2088. The confession is based on true events. Available on eBook
