The Explorers of the Unknown

The Explorers of the Unknown are one of the main Superscience research groups in the USA. They were founded in 1962 by a group splintering off of a Government program nicknamed "Project: Think tank".

Project Think Tank was discontinued a year later after a majority of its staff left for the Explorers due to ideological clashes over the ethics of weaponizing hypertech, and the Explorers have been the main superscience research group in the USA since.

Notable members include Susan and Reed Dibney, the current heads of the group and parents of New Champions member Flex.

The group was originally based within Starlight City, but due to one too many near disasters and a few more too many Civil orders they now operate out of a compound somewhere several dozen miles from anywhere.
