The Mysterons are a fictional race of Extraterrestrials which appear in the British Science fiction Supermarionation Television series' EARTH was a short-lived Japanese vocal trio which released 6 singles and 1 album between 2000 and 2001 The members are dispatched to separate maximum security facilities, but will a reconstructed electronics professor be prevented from assassinating them?

Plot

Professor G. Electronics refers to the flow of charge (moving Electrons through Nonmetal conductors (mainly Semiconductors, whereas electrical The meaning of the word professor ( Latin: professor, person who professes to be an expert in some art or science teacher of highest rank) varies A. Carney, an award-winning electronics expert, is at his country bungalow. Electronics refers to the flow of charge (moving Electrons through Nonmetal conductors (mainly Semiconductors, whereas electrical A bungalow (બંગલો baṅglo, बंगला baṅglā) is a type of single-storey House that originated in India. Pouring himself a drink, he steps out onto his garden terrace, but Captain Black is waiting in the night and guns him down with a rifle. Captain Black is the fictional nemesis of Captain Scarlet and recurring Mysteron agent in the 1960s British Supermarionation Science fiction A rifle is a Firearm designed to be fired from the shoulder with a barrel that has a helical groove or pattern of grooves ("rifling" cut into the barrel walls The Mysteron rings trail over the dead body and Carney's reconstruction appears alongside. The Mysterons are a fictional race of Extraterrestrials which appear in the British Science fiction Supermarionation Television series'

Transmitting to Earth, the Mysterons threaten to destroy the Triumvirate of Europe, the three most powerful men on Earth after the World President. EARTH was a short-lived Japanese vocal trio which released 6 singles and 1 album between 2000 and 2001 On Cloudbase, Colonel White announces that Plan XB to protect Conrad Olafson, J. For the cloud structure see Cloud base. Cloudbase is the fictional skyborne headquarters of international security organisation Spectrum from Colonel White is a character in the 1960s Supermarionation Television series Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons. L. Henderson and Joseph Meccini – codenamed "Europa" – is operational. The members of the triumvirate will be kept at three separate places of maximum security to counter the Mysterons.

The next morning, the duplicated Carney phones Dolmer University to inform his colleague, Johnson, that he is taking a vacation for "special research". Activating a screen showing a photograph of the triumvirate, he zooms in on President Conrad Olafson.

At Vandon Maximum Security Base, Captain Ochre discusses safety measures with the president, who is living in a suite 40 feet below ground. Meanwhile, equipped with a number of electronic devices, Carney drives to the eastern boundary of the complex and hooks up a loudspeaker system. For the Marty Friedman album see Loudspeaker (album A loudspeaker, speaker, or speaker system is an electroacoustical As the Mysteron agent drives to the western side of the base, recorded machine-gun sound effects ring out of the woods and the guards at Vandon Base assume that they are under attack. For other uses of the phrase see Machine Gun (disambiguation. For the album by The Jam see Sound Affects. Sound effects or audio effects are artificially created or enhanced Sounds During the confusion, personnel are transferred to the eastern perimeter. Carney attaches loose wires to the electric fence to carry the current as he severs the cables. An electric fence is a barrier that uses Electric shocks to deter animals or people from crossing a boundary Electric current is the flow (movement of Electric charge. The SI unit of electric current is the Ampere.

The gunfire eventually stops but is replaced by the rumble of tanks. A tank is a tracked, Armoured fighting vehicle designed for Front-line combat which combines Operational mobility and tactical The Angels, on aerial patrol, bomb the woods and seem to neutralise the attackers. However, Carney, now within the base perimeter, throws an explosive charge into an air vent. An explosive material is a material that either is chemically or otherwise Energetically unstable or produces a sudden expansion of the material usually accompanied Ventilation is the intentional movement of Air from outside a building to the inside Moments later, the entire complex explodes. An explosion is a sudden increase in Volume and release of Energy in an extreme manner usually with the generation of high Temperatures and the release

Olafson survived the explosion because the vent was actually a false inlet which went no deeper than ground level. Although the building on the surface was demolished, the president was safe in his underground room. On Cloudbase, Colonel White reasons that the Mysterons must now believe that Olafson is dead, and assures the president of his safety. However, White is disturbed by the aliens' deceptive tactics and warns that the Mysteron agent responsible is one of the most dangerous that Spectrum has faced.

At the bungalow, Carney re-examines the photograph and scribbles "123 OHM" into a notepad. Later, a report reaches Cloudbase detailing how the professor's body has been discovered but that a second Carney has also been seen. The Colonel is certain that the electronics expert is the Mysteron agent and Captains Scarlet and Blue are ordered to search his residence. Captain Scarlet is the fictional main character in Gerry Anderson 's British Supermarionation Science fiction Television series Captain Blue (real name Adam Svenson is a character in the 1960s Supermarionation Television series Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons.

At the scene, the officers find the notepad and the "123 OHM" reminder. Blue is puzzled by the "unusual resistance", but Scarlet deduces that it is Carney's assassination schedule: Olafson was attacked first, so President Henderson is the second target. Electrical resistance is a ratio of the degree to which an object opposes an Electric current through it measured in Ohms Its reciprocal quantity is

Extra security is implemented around the Maximum Security Centre housing the president. Driving to the centre, Carney smashes through Captain Magenta's roadblock and Scarlet and Blue pursue the enemy in an SPV. A roadblock is a temporary installation set up to control or block Traffic along a Road. The Spectrum Pursuit Vehicle (or SPV) is a fictional pursuit and attack Vehicle from Gerry and Sylvia Anderson 's Science fiction Television Carney blanks out the other vehicle's TV monitor with a device, causing Blue to lose control and crash. However, the officers are barely injured and arrive at the security facility by nightfall.

Carney flies a remote-controlled toy aeroplane over the complex, jamming all radio signals in the area. A remote control is an electronic device used for the remote operation of a Machine. Radio is the transmission of signals by Modulation of electromagnetic waves with frequencies below those of visible Light. He then lifts up an inspection cover and destroys the centre's power circuits with an explosive device. As the bewildered guards struggle to turn the lights back on, the Mysteron agent moves through the shadows, wearing night vision goggles to see as he walks to Henderson's room. Night vision is the ability to see in a dark environment Whether by biological or technological means night vision is made possible by a combination of two approaches sufficient Scarlet and Blue order the president to lie flat on the floor behind his desk as they train their guns on the door. Carney opens the suite, but stumbles over a piece of tripwire stretched across the entrance and Scarlet and Blue shoot him down. A tripwire is a passive Triggering mechanism usually/originally employed for military purposes although its principle has been used since prehistory for methods of trapping Blue marvels at the irony of an electronics expert being fooled by such a simple technique.
