The story

In the 21st century, scientists Mike Layton and Diana Green have established a satellite defense network around Earth. An alien spacecraft destroys an Earth craft, breaches the network, and heads for the planet. The invaders, the Gonians, seek to colonize Earth after their own world has become uninhabitable. They have already infiltrated human society, replacing many Earthlings and sabotaging the defenses. As the threat appears increasingly difficult to stop, two visitors from Ganymede, Irk and Azar, arrive to aid humanity.

Full plot (contains spoilers)

The 21st century, Altair space station. An alien spacecraft, after destroying an Earth spacecraft, somehow manages to breach the satellite defense network that scientists Mike Layton and Diana Green have set up around Earth, and heads for the planet of humanity. The aliens come from the planet Gona and intend to colonize Earth. The Gonian’s indiscriminate technological progress has compromised the habitability of their planet, which has been abandoned and destroyed, and their bodies are rapidly decaying. For this reason, they need a new habitable planet and humanoid bodies that can house their minds. The Gonians began colonizing Earth some time ago and have replaced many Earthlings, who had in fact sabotaged the satellite defense system and made it possible for the alien ship to get through; nothing seems able to stop them. Fortunately, two aliens from the planet Ganymede, Irk and Azar, arrive. They have been battling the Gonians as they travel from place to place, and they will help the humans. The latter looks like a beautiful young boy, but is actually a robot created by Irk and equipped with a deadly laser weapon. Thanks to the help of the two Ganymedians, the sacrifice of Azar and many humans, and the restoration of the satellite defense system, the Gonians are defeated and the survivors flee.
