Princess Ardala returns once more, this time with the aim of using Buck as part of a devious plot. With the aid of a fake Twentieth-Century spaceship she lures Buck into a trap; the captured astronaut is then brought aboard Ardala’s spaceship, the Draconia, where her associate, Commander Kane creates four androids duplicates of him. Kane and Ardala plan to use the robot copies as pilots for their Draconian fighters in a terrible attack to be launched against Earth’s defences...
