In the name of national economy, an official space research centre develops a project to find an alternative to the increasing reduction of Earth's energy and plan to send an astronaut who will drain the power of the stars by mental concentration. Meek and mild professor, Harold J. Finley, invents a device called a link-gate that is implanted into his brain and that can control all the sources of energy and the forces that surround us. Unfortunately, the device even works when Finley is unconscious which breeds dreadful aftermaths.

| Opening Narration: In the course of centuries, Man has devoured the Earth itself. The Machine Age has dried up the seas of oil. Industry has consumed the heartlands of coal. The Atomic Age has plundered the rare elements-uranium, cobalt, plutonium-leaving behind worthless deposits of lead and ashes. Starvation is at hand. Only here, in the void of space, is there a new source of atomic power. Above us, in the debris of the solar system, in the meteorites and asteroids, are the materials needed to drive the reactors. Yet in their distant, silent orbits, these chunks of matter are beyond the reach of Man, beyond the reach of human hands... but not beyond the reach of human minds. Driving along a country road in an ordinary car is a modest man: Harold J. Finley, quiet and profound..."
| Closing Narration: Deep beyond the kindest, gentlest soul may lurk violent thoughts, deadly wishes. Someday Man will learn to cope with the monsters of the mind. Then, and only then, when the human mind is truly in control of itself, can we begin to utilize the great and hidden powers of the universe.
| Dr. Keenan: It's like a cosmic reservoir, there's no limit to the amount that can be filled in to the link gate... Pure power, pure and perfect, controlled by the mind of man... You know... I don't wanna sound pathetic but a... we're close to becoming gods.
