Space Patrol Security Chief, Major Robbie Robertson, informs Commander-in-Chief Buzz Corry of incidents of eleven space freighters disappearing. The freighters are loaded with "tellerium", the "most precious metal in the universe". Corry takes a space freighter loaded with tellerium. Cadet Happy goes with him. Corry orders Hap to shoot his "atomic rocket gun". This enables them to resist the magnet enough to set them free of its influence. They contact a space patrol unit, which handily mops up Margo Hess's space pirates of Hela.
