It's the not-too-distant future of the not-too-distant future and mankind has breached the boundaries of space.
Space armadas, hyper-dimensional anomalies, green-skinned ladies who demand to be told “What is kiss?” Assignment: Outer Space features none of these sci-fi staples; instead, we follow the adventures of journalist Ray Peterson - played by a guy who was Felix Leiter in that one James Bond film, and who may or may not be dubbed with his own actual voice for a change – as he makes it his business to piss off just about everybody in the cosmos. It seems like a Herculean task, but somehow, he's equal to it.
But when an out-of-control rocket threatens life on planet Earth, our boy is looking at the story to end all lifetimes. Can he fearlessly report about it while other people do the actual hero work?
