- by Leslie F. Stone

Mort Forrest and his fellow explorer Bruce are headed for supposedly uninhabited Mercury when they are captured by Mercurians intent on taking over the solar system, but fortunately, a friendly Saturnian named Chen-Chak (with a small globe that can momentarily transfer bad guys into the future) rescues them, tells them of the history of species from all the planets, and saves the solar system. —based on Frank J.
