Description
John Brett is told to fly "Earth's greatest treasure" past a horde of space pirates encroaching on the planet but Pildorr is monitoring the radio broadcasts and intercepts Brett. Pildorr makes Brett walk the plank where he will drift in orbit forever before opening the box which contains Earth's most powerful cobalt bomb rigged to detonate upon opening. They send up a ship to retrieve Brett from orbit, because although he has no spacesuit, he has suffered no ill effects as he is a robot.
