A UFO comes within four miles of Moonbase, and then blows itself up. And all that can be found at the scene is a diamond-like rock. But when one of the SHADO men brings the rock back into Moonbase, the trouble begins, because anyone who touches the deadly rock believes that everyone they see, even their closest friends, are aliens to be destroyed.
