Buck Rogers: El aventurero del espacio (1979)
En 1987, la NASA envía al espacio profundo la nave de prueba Ranger III. Por una lluvia de meteoritos, la nave se desvía de la órbita planeada y queda a la deriva por quinientos años. Su único ocupante, el capitán William "Buck" Rogers, es hallado en animación suspendida por una nave del Imperio Draconiano, en el año 2491. Una vez descongelado, el confundido Buck se entera que los Draconianos, un pueblo belicoso, planea un ataque e invasión sorpresa a la Tierra. Buck escapa en el Ranger III y llega a nuestro futurista mundo, donde es recibido con cierta desconfianza por las autoridades, pues sospechan que sea un espía del Imperio Draconiano. Pero conforme se adapta a este mundo del siglo XXV, va ganando amigos que prestan oidos a sus advertencias, justo cuando la nave "Draconia" está orbitando el planeta Tierra.
