- Thunderbird 5 is International Rescue’s space station and the heart of the organisation’s communications network - maintained in a secret geostationary orbit high above the Earth. John Tracy and his younger brother Alan take turns to man this satellite - with each staying aboard for a month at a time. Between them - they maintain a constant vigil across the globe.
- Using sophisticated monitoring equipment - they are able to hear every radio transmission being broadcast with special filters attuned to messages of distress in any language.
- Born on 8th October - 2040 - 25-year-old John Tracy was educated at Harvard. He followed in his father’s footsteps to become an astronaut prior to his involvement with International Rescue. An electronics expert with a degree in laser communication - John is the quietest and most intellectual of the Tracy brothers. Slighter in build than his siblings - he is lithe and graceful.
- As space monitor for International Rescue - stationed aboard the massive space satellite Thunderbird 5 - John has ample time on his hands to indulge his favourite pastime of astronomy. Four astronomy and outer space textbooks have been published bearing his name and his incessant space-searching led to the discovery of the Tracy quasar system.
