After years of effort, Carl Raines finally dials in the physics that opens a small Portal into the next day by folding space using the legendary enigmatic Alcubierre Drive.
Will Burleson expands it by playing tomorrow's stock market and after two years they manage to open a Portal anywhere in the universe at any time.
Will's daughter Natalee convinces the Team to drop her with the Lewis and Clark Expedition and they end up bringing President Jefferson to 2038 where he deposes the corrupt, treasonous sitting President to bring the country back to the Constitution.
Travel with Will where his fascination with Valley Forge takes the Team to late 1777 Valley Forge where they become involved in saving the infant nation and Mount Vernon curator Professor Sellah Aris eventually convinces President George Washington to visit 2040, which sets off an unexpected chain of national disturbances and international calamities, changing history forever.
