Scientist Dr. Charles Cargraves Warner Anderson, former Air Force General Thayer Tom Powers, and industrial tycoon Jim Barnes John Archer believe that it's time that the U.S. blazed new trails and found new adventures.

Overview

Producer George Pal assembled an impressive roster of behind-the-camera talent -- including noted science fiction author Robert Heinlein and artist Chelsey Bonestell -- for this pioneering sci-fi adventure. Scientist Dr. Charles Cargraves Warner Anderson, former Air Force General Thayer Tom Powers, and industrial tycoon Jim Barnes John Archer believe that it's time that the U.S. blazed new trails and found new adventures. Convinced that exploration of space is the wave of the future and that America's dominance in space is vitally important if they are to continue to dominate the Earth, the three men begin planning and constructing a spaceship called "Luna" in the Mojave Desert that will take the men to the moon and back. However, anti-American forces begin flooding the press with propaganda against the moon mission, and finally the men make their way to moon without the aid of the federal government. While the men are thrilled to succeed in their mission, it turns out that they miscalculated the amount of fuel needed to return -- and that the rocket needs to drop a lot of weight if it is to return to Earth. Destination Moon won an Academy Award for Best Special Effects of 1950; the film also features a brief appearance by cartoon favorite Woody Woodpecker, who helps explain how rockets work. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

    I Also Recommend:

    Dated but prescient of our space program.

    As a baby boomer fan of the space program, I still find this type of film exciting and inspiring. It captures the mood of the time, when the future seemed bright and rewarding in space. Other than some of the actual hardware we finally used, it is still accurate and prescient in what we would experience, and sticks to a "man vs. nature" conflict, which is the one thing that will not change as we move out into space.

    A must have SI-FI movie

    It was far ahead of it's time. The visuals are ahead of the times, and it gave a look at what was yet to come. It was exciting and funny at the same time. If you want escapism, this is it.

    Classic Henlein!!

    If you are a Rober Henlein fan then this movie is a must see. He wrote the script for it. This movie shows a lot of correct science for the 1950's era which no other movie of that time ever did. Plus the story is a classic.
