ynopsis

An attempt to survey the Mysterons' planet, Mars, with a space probe is threatened when a scientist attached to the project is killed and duplicated by the Mysterons.

After the Lunar Controller boldly declares the Moon’s independence from Earth in its fight against the Mysterons, Captain Scarlet, Captain Blue and Lieutenant Green are dispatched to Lunarville 7 to investigate reports of an unidentified complex being built on the far side of the Moon.

After reporting back to Cloudbase, Scarlet, Blue and Green return to the Moon to remove the power source from the Mysteron complex in Crater 101. Entering the city, they try to disable their enemies’ powers of reconstruction before the complex is irrevocably destroyed in an atomic explosion.

Back on Cloudbase, Dr Kurnitz finds that the crystal pulsator recovered from the Mysteron complex has communicational capabilities. Using a special device to broadcast to Spectrum's enemies directly, Colonel White requests an end to hostilities between Earth and Mars.
