When UFOs attempt to make peaceful communications with Earth, their mission is mistaken for an invasion. They land on an Army base and are the target of gunfire. Dr. Russell Marvin (Hugh Marlowe) is on hand when the pilots announce that they plan to take over Earth within 60 days, and he is given the job of heading up Operation Skyhook, which will probe the atmosphere for future space flights. Dr. Marvin and his team develop a missile that, when fired, shatters the flying saucers. But big problems result from the attack, and the saucers crash into Washington, D.C., landmarks.
