From a reviewer at IMDb.com:

I loved watching this film. In many ways it
is a preview for greater things to come such
as "Star Trek." The film is unashamedly copied
from the epic Greek classic. I liked the script
as it not only is based on a classic, but
there are several "Star Trek" episode ideas
within the film.

Rocky (Richard Crane), our "Captain Kirk/Ulysses"
is the leader of the group. He brokers peace
between two warring moons. They use their
primitive version of a universal translator,
one which assumes everyone in the universe
uses the same alphabet. Their ship is trapped
in a magnetic field (tractor beam). The doors
open and close by themselves and they have
a viewing screen. The women wear short skirts
and even aliens where their hair like it
was the 1950's. They even had a mind sifter
mounted on the wall used to control people.

The United World (Federation) is peaceful
and extends to a number of planets. They
are of course in conflict with the Klingons,
or in this case the Orpheusians. Most likely
their home planet is in the constellation
of Orpheus.

The film by today's standards is campy. It
is similar to an old Flash Gordon serial.
Most people won't enjoy or appreciate this
missing link in sci-fi evolution as much
as I did. Might go good with the funny
stuff Colorado. - nogodnomasters
