Jeff Tracy was the head operative of International Rescue.

During the heat crisis of 2066, he reported to the others on Tracy Island that the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco had collapsed because the girders were twisted by the extreme temperature. He informed Scott that Brains had gone up to Thunderbird 5 to investigate. On advice from Brains after presenting his findings, Jeff chose to liase with World President Nikita Bandranaik and the World Government to find a solution. He was eventually able to persuade Bandranaik to allow him to send Thunderbird 3 to examine the Sun on the condition the President was kept abreast of the situation. Jeff kept in constant contact with Alan during his days-long journey. After his return, Jeff viewed Brains' film and contacted the President immediately upon assessing that the Sun would produce a new satellite, putting the entire Solar System in danger. In this meeting, Bandranaik summarised that it meant the end of the world and approved Jeff's request for a planetomic missile to save Earth by destroying the waste matter before it could escape the Sun's gravity. (COMIC: Solar Danger) His orders to TB 3 — "Object of mission: to set course for the Sun, locate breakout of solid matter of planetary size, attack and destroy" — were quoted in a report dated 24 September. (PROSE: Operation Sunburst Begins!) Becoming increasingly worried for Alan and Brains on their mission to use the missile after losing contact with them for some time, Jeff asked John to trace the position of Thunderbird 3. He was successful and Jeff briefly radioed TB 3 to warn them of its collision course with Venus but it was too late as the duo had both been unconscious. In response, Jeff ordered that Thunderbird 1 be prepared for space, sending Scott on a rescue mission. He also sent Thunderbird 2 and Thunderbird 4, containing Virgil and Gordon, at a slightly later date. (COMIC: Solar Danger)
