Franklin’s Encore
Description:
After years of effort, Carl Raines finally dials in the correct physics that opens a small portal into the next day, yes, always tomorrow, by folding space using the legendary enigmatic Alcubierre Drive (see Addendum) (see NASA). After two years of playing tomorrow’s stock market today, Will Burleson uses his new millions to finance a larger Alcubierre Drive Portal that takes him anywhere and to any time.
Will’s cardiologist grandson, Kaid, and his mother Amanda convince the Portal Team to drop them into Ben Franklin’s printshop in 1732.
Travel with Will where his fascination with “The Real Father of our Country” takes the Team to Philadelphia in late 1732 where they become involved in the whirlwind life of young Ben Franklin.
Franklin Library Curator Professor Dr. Abigail Bearden eventually convinces Franklin to visit 2040. Acting on Will’s lifelong fascination with Benjamin Franklin, the Portal Team brings him to 2040 where he sets off political turmoil and blindsides the Portal team by taking knowledge from 2040 back to 1732, threatening asingularity event in the fabric of the Timeline.
…which sets off an unexpected chain of national disturbances and international calamities, and despite Bill Gates’ theory of an immovable timeline, Ben changes history forever.
