Cyclops’ real name is Scott Summers, the field leader and one of the first 5 members of Xmen. When Scott was a boy growing up in Anchorage, Alaska, United States, his father, USAF Major Christopher Summers, took the family for a flight in their airplane. It came under attack by an alien Shi’ar spaceship. As the plane went down in flames, Scott’s parents fastened him and his younger brother Alex into a parachute and pushed them off the plane, in hopes that they would survive. Unfortunately, the parachute caught fire and Scott struck his head upon landing. This caused brain damage to Scott, which is supposedly responsible for his inability to control his optic blasts, as well as prolonged amnesia about his childhood. Scott spent most of his childhood in an orphanage in Omaha, Nebraska and subjected to batteries of tests and experiments by the orphanage’s owner, Mr. Milbury, an alias for the geneticist Mister Sinister. When he was sixteen, he was found by Charles Xavier.Cyclops had an on-again/off-again relationship with Jean Grey during their time in the X-Men.Cyclops is a mutant, capable of projecting powerful beams of concussive force from his eyes. The beams derive their power from sunlight; Cyclops’ cells are constantly absorbing solar energy and transferring it to his eyes, which in turn serve as apertures which project extra-dimensional non-Einsteinian particles in beam form .the beam generates pressure which can pummel and subsequently, if desired, destroy objects. It was through this use of his power that Scott ensured the survival of himself and his brother when their parachute failed, by softening the ground beneath them.
