With a brutal windstorm starting, they seek the shelter inside the rock formation to which they fell. With oxygen supplies low and no food or water, the situation is less than hopeless. As they approach the rock formation the dim sunlight glistens on a rock that shoots out to the side, it looks like glass or a diamond. Of all places to find a diamond John thinks.


As John reaches for and touches the diamond a slight shaking of the ground starts, then an opening appears in the rock wall like a cave. John enters, as he does lights suddenly illuminate the interior. This is not a cave he thinks, Its a room, He motions for his crew to come in. After the last crew member enters, the door closes.

Bruce Walker is an Author, world traveler, and entrepreneur. He is from a small Midwestern town in southeast Missouri.

Writing was always a passion for Bruce, but time would not allow this passion in his earlier years. Since age sixteen he had the calling, but life, work, family and his travels have left that part of his life void.

During his school years, he once approached the editor of the local newspaper and spoke with him about space and time travel. At age 16 he had his first story published. Later he would reflect on this time as a profound change in his life.

At age 18 Bruce left his small town, and he too ventured out to explore the country and the world. He gained knowledge and experience throughout all this time. Bruce has lived in various parts of the country since leaving his home town. But has now lived near Philadelphia for almost 35 years.

He has written articles for numerous publications. He has been heavily involved in photography, ham radio and electronics as well as traveling the world gaining new ideas. Having been influenced by Star Trek, Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica and others, he would often think of adventures his mind as if he were actually there.

Through his books, Bruce reflects on his visions and ideas about our beginning, our past, and possible future. Mars Base 1 is that reflection on our possible future.

Bruce also has a series of books to help you become free from your corporate slavery. This series called BYOB will teach you to become your own boss. His book “Amazon Seller Central Secrets” is now on sale on all major platforms.
