A private mining company finances the first rocket-ship to the planet Mars. The three man crew discover vast deposits of uranium. They have a deal with the mining company that they will receive a 3rd of all mining profits. They are rich! They talk of what they will do with their new found wealth. But one member of the crew can't shake the feeling that they are being watched. Another member starts having massive headaches. Soon the two are in a fight and the third crewman is drawn in. The dust-up escalates and soon all three men are dead. We then hear two disembodied voices discussing how easy it was to invade these creature's minds. They decide to take the rocket-ship and head to Earth. Cheap sets, rushed acting and boom mikes do not detract in the least from these wonderful examples of early live TV.
