Synopsis

When a number of U. S. moon rockets explode in midair shortly after launching from Cape Kennedy, secret agent Harry Sennet (nicknamed Goldman because of his unlimited expense account) is assigned to investigate the possibility of sabotage. Accompanied by his assistant Patricia, he goes to Miami to check on the disappearance of a prominent nuclear scientist. After almost losing his life during another disastrous launching, Harry follows some beer trucks and discovers that they contain powerful laser guns which are being used to explode the missiles. Further investigation leads him to the underground submarine base of Rethe, a madman who plans to conquer the world by means of a moon rocket equipped with a laser cannon. Once inside the base, Harry is captured and imprisoned with the missing scientist. Aided by Kary, the scientist's captive daughter, Harry escapes and triggers a massive explosion. Harry and the scientist are the sole survivors, and as they appear on the surface of the sea, a helicopter with Patricia aboard arrives to rescue them.
