Daffy Duck, accompagné de son « Cadet de l'espace » (Porky Pig), fait des recherches sur un tableau et déduit qu'il faut passer par toutes les planètes marquée d'une lettre, et ceci par ordre alphabétique, pour aboutir « naturellement » à cette planète X.

Une rampe de lancement de fusée se trouve exactement au-dessus du terrier de Bugs Bunny. Notre lapin se réveille d'une nuit difficile. Il ne se rend pas compte qu'en sortant de chez lui, il rentre dans la fusée par la tuyère. La fusée quitte la Terre avec le lapin à bord. Bugs émerge enfin du sommet de la fusée, se rend compte qu'il est loin dans l'espace. Il se retrouve accroché au spoutnik avec lequel il atterrit dans une sorte de gigantesque station spatiale. Il découvre l'extraterrestre Marvin se déplaçant vers un étrange (et très gros) télescope orienté sur la Terre, et qui se révèle être un canon dont le but est de détruire cette planète qui lui cache la vue de Vénus. Il loge à la base du « canon-télescope » une pièce décisive, qui est en fait un tout petit bâton de dynamite. Bugs éteint le bâton avant qu'il n'explose, puis le vole. Marvin envoie ses « troupes » à la poursuite de Bugs, troupes formées de martiens à corps de poulet vert. Il les crée à partir d'un distributeur automatique doté d'une capacité de 10 000 martiens « instantanés », déshydratés dans leur bocal. Marvin les fait revenir à leur taille normale en les arrosant avec de l'eau comme avec des graines.
