The Fold

Book 1: The Fold Book 2: The Message Book 3: Fold Wormhole Book 4: Negative Fold Book 5: Ripples In Time The Fold The Fold was not visible unless one was at its focal point. Then one could look back and see the solar system and just make out the blue jewel that was Earth. Then in the opposite direction a distant Galaxy was visible through the Fold focal point. Bram took in the moment as he realized he had breached the barrier to the speed of light as the barrier keeping man from exploring the Universe. He thought that going faster than the speed of light might be possible but even if one could go one hundred times the speed of light, crossing the galaxy and then the rest of the Universe would still take eons. He figured that if he could figure out how to Fold space, he would create the situation where he could step from his current location to anywhere in time. His accomplishment was one that was forced by the US government that isolated him in an undisclosed location out in the desert. He essentially becomes a prisoner of the US government and is sent to some undisclosed location in the desert somewhere in the middle of the US. He has one close confident. A mouse he names Einstein that he converses with. He regularly sits on a giant boulder that overlooks the camp. The view reminds Bram of a movie about area fifty-one. He makes the breakthrough, and he figures out how to change how the Fold project is managed. He slowly gains control of the Fold program. He becomes its center and the people that supported him became his defenders. Wealthy and powerful individuals see the program as a threat to their investments and their power and use their wealth in an attempt to stop him. They hire and arm mercenaries to eliminate the program in any manner possible. The Message Unexpectedly a message from some distant galaxy is intercepted. The message is a plea for help by distant aliens. This is an accidental discovery and one that challenges the Fold team. While working on responding to the Message, testing uncovers the need to considerably modify Bram's Fold equations. This process leads to the discovery that experiencing a Fold has a positive health effect. Then at Christmas, success is crowned with the transformation of a wheelchair bound young woman to one that is a defect free person. It is a miracle! Bram experiences tears as he realizes the miracle that the Fold process has delivered. He and the team then reply to the Aliens that Earth will help. Two miracles end a spectacular year. Wormhole Bram know a way to modify the Fold Equation that allows the person going through the Fold to move in the time frame of the location to where they Folded. This give the vessel they are in the ability to maneuver in the time frame they have Folded. He conquers the ability to have a dynamic space time Fold. Negative Fold Deals with the negative Fold where time does not exist, and distance is the determining element. Bram almost loses his life as he travels into the negative Fold environment. Ripples in Time Deals with the disturbances that the Fold action is causing in both the past and in the future. How to minimize the effect of time ripples becomes as challenge and one that Bram addresses with his team.
