Julian Vance

Using desktop quantum apparatus, researcher Julian Vance accidentally invents a spacetime and gravity warping bubble that sends inanimate objects backward to reappear at coordinates matching his lab's ancient rock site, prompting him to buy the land, set up a concealed outdoor testing station, successfully transport a deceased mouse in a glass box, verify live biological transit with a radioactive trace element, and finally travel back to the prehistoric era himself, where he arrives to find a note and a waiting red-headed stranger in the forest.
