Policeman Don Ross stumbles on a gang of hi-jackers operating at a local café run by Connie Williams. When he tells his senior officer of his suspicions, Ross is laughed off, so he decides to investigate single-handed. Ross finds himself being bribed by gang member Diamond as he gathers evidence of the gang’s activities, while ringleader Miles plans and executes the robbery of a truck carrying £30,000 worth of cigarettes.
Now certain of Diamond’s guilt and determined to bring down Miles, Ross joins the gang as they prepare for their final operation: the robbery of a £20,000 load of nickel alloy ingots…

2065: The Hood sabotages the first manned space expedition to Mars causing the massive Zero X space vehicle to plummet out of control and crash into the sea. Two years later, the committee of the Martian Exploration Centre elect to invite International Rescue to organise the security arrangements at the launch of a second mission. Lady Penelope goes undercover as a reporter at Glenn Field and she and Scott successfully unmask The Hood as he attempts to stow away aboard the new Zero X.
The launch is successful and, after a six week flight, the crew of Zero X make a landing on Mars. But as they explore the planet surface in their Martian Exploration Vehicle, they come under fire from Martian Rock Snakes and barely escape with their lives. Then, on their return to Earth, Zero X’s locking gear is damaged when one of the vehicle’s lifting bodies goes out of control and the crew are trapped on board as Zero X heads for a crash-landing on Craigsville…

An unmanned Sun Probe has discovered a new planet in the solar system, in the same orbit as Earth but on the direct opposite side of the sun. The European Space Exploration Centre (EUROSEC) proposes a manned flight to the new planet in conjunction with NASA, but the American space agency only agrees to contribute the lion’s share of the budget when it becomes clear that the Sun Probe information has been leaked to the East.
The launch date is advanced and project director John Kane is joined aboard the Phoenix capsule by American astronaut Glenn Ross for a three week flight to the far side of the sun. On arrival at the new planet, however, their Dove shuttle is hit by an electrical storm and crashes. The astronauts are rescued but Kane is critically injured and Ross is puzzled to find himself back on Earth, facing questions about why they aborted the mission and returned to Earth after only three weeks. Slowly, it dawns on Ross that he has not returned to his own planet at all, but a duplicate Earth that is a mirror image of his own…

On board are two complete family units: Dr. Tom Bowen with his wife Anna and son David, and Captain Harry Masters with his daughter Jane.
Their work at Alpha Centauri completed, the two families elect to continue deeper into space but the computer guidance system malfunctions and the Altares is hit by a meteorite shower.
