The Earth-Moon Station is an artificial wheel situated between Earth and the Moon, manned by Haleson and Crandall. Crandall is dangerously distracted. Crandall’s wife informed him that his son is getting in trouble. When a spacecraft travels past them, they leap into action. Earth jet fighters fail to have any effect on the much larger unidentified craft, which captures all the attacking planes. Haleson and Crandall are the only ones who can stop the apparent invasion. They board a specialized spacecraft armed with atomic warheads. A saucer-shaped craft appears, signaling to them to stand down. Landing all ships on Earth, the invading craft is revealed to contain juvenile delinquent Xandarths from Alpha Centari. The Xandarth Saucer is there to retrieve the exuberant youths. The Earth pilots are returned safe and sound. The Xandarth leader assures them they intended no harm, as they all have to live in the same galaxy together.
