Army Captain John Dillon defies an official clamp-down and takes the remains of an object from space which crashes on Earth to the British Rocket Group. When Quatermass returns with him to investigate the area of Winnerden Flats, he finds a huge synthetic food plant there, identical to his proposed moonbase.

Dillon is infected by gas from one of the objects from space and bears a scar. He is taken away to the Plant by similarly scarred zombie- like guards. When Quatermass tries to get news of him, he finds local officials very unhelpful.
