Background

Lomax is the Master Computer of the Lunar Colony, New Washington.


During the events of H.G. Wells' The Shape of Things to Come (1979) played by William Hutt voice

On New Washington, Kim tells Lomax there is an emergency and a spaceship is on a crash course headed towards the Lunar Colony. Lomax recommends full emergency procedures and Kim contacts Jason and tells him there is an emergency. Jason notices the cargo ship is almost carrying nothing and tries to get Lomax to override the ship. Dr. Caball and Senator Smedley walk onto the bridge as Jason tries to convince Lomax to override the spaceship. Lomax attempts to override the spaceship and cause it to self destruct, but fails, and the spaceship impacts with the Lunar Colony. Jason asks Lomax to initiate repair of the dome breach. Lomax opens communications with Delta Three and Omus tells Dr. Caball, the former governor Niki and Niki's Army have fled the citadel and he is now in charge. Omus demands that he be made supreme commander of the Earth and the Moon and all outposts in the Solar System. Senator Smedley refuses his demands and Omus stops all shipments of RADIC-Q-2 immediately. Lomax tells Senator Smedley to alert the Moon Council that no aggressive action may be taken against Delta Three. Lomax detects an unauthorized presence on Starstreak. Lunar Technician tells Senator Smedley she can't locate Dr. Caball or Jason and Senator Smedley requests Lomax shut down all travel.
