Thunderbirds The Tracy dynasty of heroic sons is headed by Jeff Tracy. He gave up his Space career to look after his boys Scott, John, Virgil Gordon and Alan after the death of his wife. His great skill as a construction engineer has made him one of the richest men in the world. But now, he is a patriarch with a mission. All his time is dedicated to the service of International Rescue.

This he established with the help of Brains, whom he discovered when he scoured the world to find a scientist who could realise the project of the Thunderbird machines. Brains is a rather nervous but brilliant perfectionist whose idea of a relaxing break is the study of Trigonometry and Thermodynamics�..He�s also known as Hiram Hackenbacker�but no one knows his true identity.
