Scripted by Joe Stillman, it turns on a lantern-jawed U.S. astronaut, Capt. Charles “Chuck” Baker (Johnson), whose shuttle touches down on a supposedly uninhabited planet. The inhabitants of Planet One, who have two antennae and eight fingers, live in a world strangely akin to American suburbia of the 1950s, with drive-in movies, picket fences and a persistent fear of alien invasion — which is fulfilled when a human astronaut lands in their midst.
