Milo Million is one of the greatest minds of the century, last century that is. The year was 1951, when Milo and his partner, Oliver, finished the one of a kind spaceship with otherworldly functions. Milo waves goodbye to his home and goes off into the unknown. He flys at speeds thought to be inhumanly possible while exploring distant other worldly places. He completely forgets about his old life on earth, until one day he finds himself close to it. He realizes that the last time he set foot on earth was 2 years ago, but 70 years have passed in our time.
The year is now 2021, and Milo has to adjust to how life is here now as he tries to help his now sickly partner. All while keeping his discoveries and gadgets hidden from those that could put his expansion of scientific understanding to a halt.
