What Is Alien Attack About?
The premise of Alien Attack without spoilers.
Moonbase Alpha, a research colony of 300 Earth personnel in the crater Plato, watches atomic waste silos on the Moon’s far side. Magnetic radiation makes the waste explode, freeing the Moon from Earth’s pull and sending it into space.
