The American National Space Administration - ANSA - launched a second space vessel to follow the trajectory of the Liberty 1 piloted by George Taylor, John Landon, Thomas Dodge and Maryann Stewart, which had launched in January 1972. Image:JBrentship2.jpg Image:JBrentship1.JPG The skeleton crew chosen for this mission (as the trajectory was already pre-set), consisted of Colonel Maddox and Major Brent. Their ship crashed and was more extensively damaged than the Liberty 1, having landed on solid ground rather than water, and Col. Maddox died shortly after impact.

  • The American National Space Administration - ANSA - launched a second space vessel to follow the trajectory of the Liberty 1 piloted by George Taylor, John Landon, Thomas Dodge and Maryann Stewart, which had launched in January 1972. Image:JBrentship2.jpg Image:JBrentship1.JPG According to the 2011 novel Conspiracy of the Planet of the Apes, the Liberty ships were reverse engineered from technology of classified origin, and were propelled by an experimental photon propulsion drive designed by Dr. Hasslein. Three months after the crew of the Liberty 1 entered hibernation, it collided with a ship exactly identical with itself, automatically setting an emergency course for Earth and crash-landing there nine months later (by ship-time). Back at ANSA, the X-Comm technology allowed Dr. Hasslein to monitor progress, but communications had abruptly stopped. However, Landon's location transmission signal somehow found its way back through the time distortion to the place they had left, prompting ANSA to consider sending a second Liberty craft along the same trajectory, either as a rescue mission or, more likely, as a suicide mission which would nevertheless prove time-travel theory. The skeleton crew chosen for this mission (as the trajectory was already pre-set), consisted of Colonel Maddox and Major Brent. Their ship crashed and was more extensively damaged than the Liberty 1, having landed on solid ground rather than water, and Col. Maddox died shortly after impact.
