Captain Charles "Chuck" Baker, American astronaut, lands on Planet 51 thinking he is the first person to set foot on the planet. To his surprise, he discovers that the planet is inhabited by small green creatures that live happily in a world full of white fences, reminiscent of the joyful innocence of the America of the 50s, and whose only fear is to be invaded by aliens. .. like Chuck! Helped by his robot companion "Rover" and his new friend Lem, Chuck will have to fight his way through the dazzling and bewildering landscape of the planet so as not to become a permanent part of the Planet 51 Alien Invaders Space Museum.
