An unidentified missile moves through space, nearing Earth. One nation fires a rocket at it, but this only diverts the missile into the atmosphere, where it begins tearing up everything in its path. As it heads towards Ottawa and then New York City, the Canadian and U.S. military are mobilized, but they can't halt its progress. A scientist (Robert Loggia) and his fiancée (Ellen Parker), though, have been working on a hydrogen warhead that may be able to hit the missile and save the Earth.

A 1958 American science fiction film written by John McPartland and science-fiction writer Jerome Bixby. It was to have been directed by William Berke, who was also the executive producer, but following Berke's sudden death, his son Lester Wm. Berke became the film's director. It stars Robert Loggia in one of his earliest roles.
