All the nations of the earth must stand united.

A pilot is testing out a new aircraft when he spots a flying saucer. Naturally, it jams the radar as all flying saucers do, and no one believes him, not even his relatives. So, he uses a laser device that is immune to static to track down the saucer. Our government shoves a sketch under their noses for verification. Yep, that is it. It is the height of the Cold War, and a downed saucer is found in RED China. So there is a race between a group of Americans and the Ruskies to see who gets there before the Chinese government finds out. We get a mix of good guys, bad guys, nationalists, and individuals. They (and we) must learn what makes the other side tick and get along on the mission. The American pilot advisor, John Ericson, runs into the female Russian scientist Lois Nettleton while she is taking a shower. Later, he keeps running into her in conversation. Eventually, though, all the bantering forms, a mutual affection arises. Will they be able to discover the saucer secrets before being found by the Chinese Government? Or will they be able to destroy the almost indestructible machine? Aside from a well-acted film that may have had a few too many clichés, something is captivating about Lois Nettleton that, years later, you will say, “Now what was that movie I saw her in?” considering she made over 100 TV appearances.
