Livingstone soon discovers that "space travel" is not the only agenda Star 1 has onboard and along with an arsenal of nuclear warheads the earthmen set about pillaging Ixnor's natural resources. What the earthmen do not know is that the Ixnorians have long since transcended war and crime and that Livingstone, the only one capable of returning Star 1 to earth, is secretly falling in love with Gael.
