After voyaging to the moon, an Earth space crew encounters two advanced aliens, one of whom is dying who they take back to Earth for treatment, where they're pursued by agents after the aliens' technology.
I found this to be a pretty fun Italian science fiction film (credited as a co-production with West Germany, Spain, and Monaco), with special effects that were well done for their era, and engaging leads, particularly Persson as a beautiful alien with a superiority complex. I liked the unexpected thrust of the story, based on novels by Clark Darlton per IMDB, commencing with a space mission and then returning to Earth on an adventure to retrieve a doctor from East Africa, pitting our heroes against a hostile military government, as well as the agents of a criminal empire. Lots of action and explosions sustain excitement and the alien technology is well integrated into the storyline.
