Background: The first thing that Rex saw when he opened his eyes for the first time as puppy was the beautiful starry night sky. Despite his simple mind, Rex had a large fascination with the stars and even though he didn't know what they were, he wanted to see them up close.

His owners were nice and one of them was a worker at NASA. His owner had to take him to work one time and he behaved so well that his charm got the other workers to make him their mascot. One day Rex had accidentally wandered into a test rocket and was blasted off into space.

He was terrified, but he was also amazed by the sight of the vast beauty of space. However it wasn't long after his ship had reached orbit when a strange alien craft approached his ship and the next thing Rex knew, he was in the alien spaceship being experimented by the extraterrestrials.

They altered his brain's structure and made it stronger. After they were finished Rex found that he could fully understand the world around him and even communicate telepathically with other lifeforms. He soon discovered more psychic powers and since then he has gone on a great adventure in space battling all sorts of foes with his psychic powers. His mind was open to an incredible new world that had never known before and with abilities he would fight to keep the world safe from danger like a good dog.
Misc. Notes: he still eats dog food and loves doggie treats
