Synopsis

High school student Clifford "Kip" Russell wins a used space suit in a soap jingle contest and restores it to working condition, only to be swept up in an interstellar adventure when he answers a distress call from a young girl named Peewee. Together with an alien ally called the Mother Thing, they are kidnapped to the Moon and then to Pluto, ultimately facing a tribunal of advanced alien races that will decide humanity's fate.
