Trapped outside the boundaries of time and space... 102 aircraft... 6,000 men... all missing.

Overview

During routine manoeuvres near Hawaii in 1980, the aircraft-carrier USS Nimitz is caught in a strange vortex-like storm, throwing the ship back in time to 1941—mere hours before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.
