The Runaway Rocket

Overview

Tom, Astro and Roger are on escort duty for the speed trial of a new rocket scout manned by Commander Arkwright, Captain Strong, and Cadet Rattison. The rocket develops a short circuit in the main control panel that sends it off course to plunge directly into the sun. Only Tom Corbett and the space cadets are in a position to save the rocket as it falls out of control toward the sun.
