Howard Duff is part of the UK space program, designing rockets that will crack the atmosphere (?!). He is in a terrible marriage and his selfish wife can't stand that he makes so little money as an engineer. He has fallen in love with a beautiful technician but can't act on it. When a rocket goes haywire, he is accused of putting his wife and her lover, a colleague in the program, in the final capsule. There is no way to check for the bodies and Duff is going to be brought up on murder charges by an obsessed spy chaser. So he offers to become the first man in space and bring down the haywire rocket to prove his innocence.
