When two inept couriers appear at a space launch, Lester (Bud Abbott) and Orville (Lou Costello), they become trapped on a spaceship scheduled to go to Mars. Pushing buttons by mistake, they cause the ship to blast off for New Orleans during Mardi Gras. Thinking it is Mars, they are hoodwinked into participating in a robbery by Mugsy (Horace McMahon) and Harry (Jack Kruschen). They use the ship as a getaway vehicle, and take off for Venus where they encounter an all-female planet, led by Allura (Mari Blanchard) and her guard (Anita Ekberg). Orville is made king of Venus, but before long they blast off by accident again for earth.
