In today's Space Patrol adventure, Commander Buzz Corey and Cadet Happy have returned to the star system half a million light years from the united planets to search for the one remaining pilot still missing from an ill-fated expedition. Three other pilots have already been found and have returned safely to TERRA. Buzz and Happy realize that every moment spent on the unfriendly galaxy means increased peril, as the guardian of the star system has sworn to destroy them.
