En 1987 la NASA envía al espacio profundo la nave de prueba Ranger III. Por una lluvia de meteoritos, la nave se desvía de la órbita planeada y queda a la deriva por quinientos años.

Una vez descongelado, el confundido Buck se entera que los Draconianos, un pueblo belicoso, planea un ataque e invasión sorpresa a la Tierra.
