In an era of intense Cold War tension, a clandestine Soviet spy satellite, fueled by pilfered Western technology, experiences a malfunction and plummets back to Earth. Its unanticipated landing near Ice Station Zebra - a remote Arctic outpost belonging to the British and staffed with dedicated researchers - sets off a series of distress signals before abruptly ceasing communication. Urgency grips the global intelligence community, prompting the dispatch of the atomic submarine Tigerfish under the seasoned command of Cmdr. James Ferraday (Rock Hudson). With time rapidly slipping away and the fate of the encampment's occupants hanging in the balance, Ferraday and his crew must race against the clock to reach Ice Station Zebra before it succumbs entirely to the relentless Arctic wilderness. The journey is fraught with uncertainty and peril, testing their resolve and uncovering secrets as they navigate the icy landscape towards a mission that could mean life or death for the stranded team at Ice Station Zebra.
