- 🔴 Title: DESTINATION MOON
🔴 Summary: After their latest rocket fails, Dr. Charles Cargraves and retired General Thayer have to start over again. This time, Gen. Thayer approaches Jim Barnes, the head of his own aviation construction firms to help build a rocket that will take them to the moon. Together they gather the captains of industry and all pledge to support the goals of having the United States be the first to put a man on the moon. They build their rocket and successfully leave the Earth's gravitational pull and make the landing as scheduled. Barnes has consumed too much fuel during the landing, leaving them short for the return voyage to Earth. After stripping the ship bare, they are still over 100 lbs too heavy, meaning that one of them will have to stay behind. #sci-fi #sciencefiction

I knew Lee Zavitz , Special Effects. Destination Moon won an Academy Award. Lee also worked on Gone With the Wind. I was the guy who set the town on fire’ he would say on our fishing trips. An expert with dynamite, Lee had never hurt anyone so big stars wanted him. He had little use for the men (exceptions Lancaster, McQueen) but loved the ladies, Jean Simmons, Liz Taylor. He showed slides in the evenings and they were all there , without makeup. A remarkable man. A book.
Nice. That's a good story.
Awesomer Eh 💯🫂☮️🇨🇦
Heinlein again was ahead of his time and spot on
Terrific classic movie. Great screenplay, great acting. Thats what matters.
Superb Film Score (Leith Stevens)!!!!
@@deacondavis5098 yes! 👍 great sense of wonder whenever they behold the mysterious beauty of space. And the rocket lands on the tail fins! Took 80 years, but Space X proved Bonestell right!
The look, the style the colour just can't be replicated today
I remember watching this film on tv sometime in the late 1960s (67, perhaps). This, as well as other things, heightened the excitement of our going to the Moon. Those were heady days, indeed...
I well remember seeing this at the base theater in 1958. Yeah, yeah they were a tad late showing 'new' films. Also read Heinlein's story this came from, and became addicted to his tales of SciFi adventures. 👍👍& 5⭐🚀
Any thing by Heinlein was great. I started reading his books in the 60's
Love this movie. A bit of education from woody woodpecker. 😂👍👍👏
Cool, I've heard about this film since I was a kid, used as inspiration for the actual Apollo program. They brought a bunch of leading Sci Fi authors to bring ideas about what hurdles they would need to overcome, Heinlein, Asimov and a few others,
9.24....."..do we go to lunch? or do we go to the Moon...." That became a catch phrase at my school every time dinner loomed up! Compelling viewing in the early Fifties.
Excellent film! You can tell Robert Heinlein wrote the book & the screenplay. It was scientifically accurate all the way through. The spooky thing is is that by the decent stage of the lunar lander at each site on the moon is a pile of jettisoned stuff that they had to leave behind to make sure they had enough delta-v to get back!
Life immitating art IRL 😆
Not a Premiere.
@@amiga2025 Might not been a real "premiere," but I'd never seen this before. The ending is so spell-binding and expertly written. I'm 79. It's June 8, 2023 here in St. Joseph, MO, USA.
Scientifically accurate? The whole premise on the Moon of having to significantly lighten the ship to achieve lift-off is garbage as it already takes way less energy to lift off from the moon because it's gravity is only one quarter that of Earth's gravity.
@@allengator1914 Lunar gravity is about 17% that of Earth's or ⅙G. Not ¼G or 25% as you say above.
Also, their miscalculation makes them use more fuel to land than expected meaning they are too heavy by 110lb to reach lunar escape velocity. That is why they have to lighten the ship.
Just as Apollo astronauts lightened every single lunar excursion module by leaving stuff not needed on the journey home. They just chucked it out of the hatch in the same manner as you see in the film.
I didn't say it was scientifically accurate lightly. Even Wikipedia has this to say; "Destination Moon was the first major U.S. science fiction film to deal with the practical scientific and engineering challenges of space travel and to speculate on what a crewed expedition to the Moon would look like."
Maybe a little research before you jump in would help Allen?
One sixth, but that doesn’t matter if you have insufficient fuel even for the lower gravity as was explained earlier due to use of excess in landing.@@allengator1914
George Pal also produced War Of The World's back in the 1950's
great special effects for it's time. Good movie also. 👍
I must have watched this film when I was seven, or eight years old. Much of the science is surprisingly accurate. They got the geology on the Moons surface wrong, and also the view of Earth from space, but they had no way of knowing at the time.
I remember a lot of this movie. It must have made quite an impression. I wonder how much it influenced me to peruse an aerospace education in college and become an airline pilot?
At seventy six this was fun to see again.
I'm about your age, and saw it in black and white on TV. It wasn't for several years that I saw it in color. It caused me to want to fly, as well. Unfortunately, by the time I was old enough my eyes wouldn't allow me to pursue the kind of flying I wanted. But I still love watching this old film. It's true science fiction, that is, extrapolation from known facts, unlike much of the science fantasy we see today.
@@ghshinn Oh yeah, I completely understand. Like you I enjoy old science fiction because the movies were based on science, not fantasy. The Thing. Forbidden Planet. I loved Arther C. Clark.
They got it wrong when they faked the moon landing, I guess they never figureed we could look at the moon ourselves one day, so stupid people still think we went
They overlooked several things that weightlessness would imply, but unlike the old Batman TV series where the rope was sagging sideways while they were walking down a skyscraper wall, they worked very hard at keeping the rope tight so it didn't have a noticeable sag during their spacewalk.
Great 50’s movie. Apparently some filming at the Lockheed plant. At about 19:45 you can see a Connie behind the model of the rocket. Earlier (4:44), film of “Barnes Aviation” manufacturing is the Connie assembly line.
I noticed that they launched from a US desert region at 4 in the morning, and when they showed the rear view you could see the sunrise off to the east of the launch point, as it should have been. Then when they looked back at the earth after takeoff, The only part of the US still in shadow was the west coast. That’s some pretty good continuity for a space movie from 1950. They must have had some science nerd on payroll at the studio.
LOL... Yeah... his name was Robert A. Heinlein.
HEINLEIN WAS TECHNICAL ADVISOR
@@RodgerDodger196 And a co-writer.
Is what’s weird is it’s 2024 and nobody has seen the whole earth from space except nasa or their fake drawings of earth
In 1951, at age 5, I was at my local theater to see a b/w Martin & Lewis comedy, "Sailor
Beware",when the 'coming attractions' for the film "Destination Moon" came on the screen!
As I had never seen a color movie before, I was astounded to see the vibrant & different
colors of the Spacemen's suits! Unfortunately, I had to wait decades to see this great film!
Being a Tintin fan. i now see this is the inspiration for Destination Moon. lots of the same elements. even the timing when the comic strip came out from March to June in 1950. but Tintins version is even more fleshed out than this movie itself.
❤️
They dont make movies like these any more. Brings back memories of my childhood with my grand parents
Tail-firs landing burn...took nearly seventy years to catch up :-). It may have gone much quicker as in Heinlein's timeline. A man named Harriman started private space development in that timeline in the 50's and didn't leave it the Government (See Heinlein's "Future HIstory" series).
Great film, really enjoyed it.
The Woody Woodpecker cartoon used in the movie was updated and then used by NASA to explain space travel to the public.
Yeah that’s what we get cartoons green screen and holly wood. It looks so fake it’s got to be real..so that cartoon is real?
😁
I grew up in Iowa, reading any SF books I could find, and liked Heinlein a lot. Now I live in the town he was born and raised in, a few blocks from his childhood home.
I’m not sure but this may have been the first movie to show earth with clouds from space. Most sci-fi movies forgot about clouds.
It's a sexy rocket. Some launch... I hope they paid those actors a big fat bonus.
I thought I read somewhere that Elon Musk was inspired by this film and the other 50's sci-fi movies that showed rocket ships similar to the "Luna". The initial designs of SpaceX's Starship looked almost identical. Also, the fact that the hull is mostly steel, which hasn't been used since the early Atlas rockets. Uncanny, how this film ( and the book it's based on ) predicted that space travel would be advanced by private companies and not the government, which is now becoming reality.
Way before Musk the Apollo vehicles were made by a multitude of Aircraft companies like: Grumman, Aerojet, Bell Aerosystems, Rocketdyne, North American, Douglas Aircraft and other contractors around the country contributed to the Apollo programme.
The part about terrestrial re-entry was missing, which is as complicated as taking off from the moon 🚀
Remember, this was written in 1953. The idea of burning off velocity via aerobraking, and just how high a temperature that would produce hadn't been realised yet. It only seemjs obvious to us, because we've grown up with it. Plus there's the fact that they needed to simplify things as much as possible for the movie.
It's why Luna wasn't staged, which would have made more sense. Heinlein wanted a staged rocket, but oince again the producers didn't think audiences would understand why the rocket broke in half.
Not bad for a 1950 flik.
nice looking rocket ship.
The count down at the beginning was too fast.
In one of his biographies, Heinlein complained about how everyone was messing with the script and he wanted his name removed from the film but that didn't happen. He complained that at one point even the director's barber (or dentist, maybe,) was writing dialog.
What impressed me was those opening credits going off into space. Kinda make one wonder how STAR WARS got their idea for their opening credits???
Star Wars opening credits came from Flash Gordon of the 30S. George use a lot off of Flash Gordon
That is interesting to what you say about those opening credits were first used on FLASH GORDON Kinda makes one wonder what abilities they had in those early days?@@brianturner-tn1tb
Cool spaceship 😮
1:01:44 The biggest problem for this ship is the ridiculously long ladder rung design! Even at lower gravity, that's a lot of climbing up and down.
Nice! Excellent! Notice how the group of businessmen clapped after the Woody Woodpecker presentation? This was just a little before my time. Nobody claps anymore…😮
Bit like the opening credits of Star Wars the way they roll off into space.
Shows Lucas has hoods taste.
Oops...GOOD taste. Lucas is the best!
This is not a premier, it is been on RUclips for a while.
So what? Ask for a refund if you paid too much.
Superb Leith Stevens Score!!!!
A GREAT MOVIE WELL DONE FOR THE TIME.
I enjoy watching these old films. This happens to be very good. Thanks for sharing. New Subscriber.
I saw this in 1951 at a drive-in theater at Ulysses, Kansas. Only 18 years till the moon landing. Wow
Never seen Mr. Bogart in a role like this....absolutely brilliant
Yes…a very young Bogart…and uncredited as well!
Bogart? Not in this film.
It’s Dick Wesson as Sweeney not Bogart
History books say the the Luna burnt up in re-entry with all on board lost. Brave soles gone all too young . RIP 😊
The cartoon was hilarious
I love the way moments after the launch crash, still burning, they go home...
That rocket was launched in Peenemünde.
Of all the SciFi writers I read when was kid Robert Heinlein was teh best.
Born Ralph Bowman John Archer ( Not John Archer the famous UK professional magician )plays Jim Barnes great first time viewing great production and quality acting
Unmistaken hand of Chesley Bonestel in the scenery.
Same music that's in The Phantom Planet.
One thing for sure they knew very little about space. Folks were stuck here on this world never going outside of it because something won’t allow it to happen.
Unless the ship is made out of ferrous materials the magnets will not be usable but the the weight would be stupendous and no engine could send them out to space.
Yeah, about that...
I Like how he says 'Thirteen ' Sorry I'm English.
I have seen this at least 3 times what was sience fiction became sience fact
😏 _science_ possibly? Yea, "we went to the moon." 😂 🤣 🥲
Original novel: Rocket Ship Galileo
Brilliant scientist recruits 3 teenage boys interested in rocket science. Yes, that's right.
What I remember most strongly are the tangents Heinlein often went into; in this it was a discussion with the Jewish boy's parents whether or not to let him go. Then a discussion on whether there IS a backside of the moon, or "nothing". Then long abandoned Selenite underground civilization, now being used by hidden Nazis. Other things like that.
And, like almost everyone else of this age Dr. Cargraves brilliant space rocket fuel was an atomic mix. Scientists still hadn't fully grasped the fact that nuclear energy was DIFFERENT. It was often treated as just another "chemical" to be mixed.
To be fair, it was a nuclear thermal rocket using powdered zinc, heated to gas, as reaction mass. Ridiculous by today's understanding, but it made sense within the limits of knowledge of the time.
Now, of course we know that nuclear thermal rockets have pants thrust to weight ratios, in part because a solid core NTR is severely limited by not being able to heat propellent beyond the melting point of the reactor material.
Plus you need the lightest molecules you can get as exhaust, as those have the highest velocity for a given temperature, and velocity translates to specific impulse and how efficient the rocket is. It's why current designs use hydrogen as propellant.
Using water as in Luna gets you lower delta V and would mean you had superheated disasociated oxygen flowing through the reactor, requiring special protection to avoid engine rich exhaust as the oxygen literally eats the engine.
Simpler times, when the moon was expected to be made up of blue cheese.
Actually, green cheese.🌛🌜🧀🧀‼️‼️‼️‼️
I have old glass pictures that were used for teaching. I have old 1950s I think of the hand nebula and some Mars pictures. Some of the teaching notes talk about the canals and how blossom fill up with water from pole water. I bought a leather case with cardboard partitions for the slides. I mention that in case it triggers a memory in somebody. Makes me wonder if somebody in our future will dig up some of our notes and laugh at how backwards we were. lol lol 😂😂
@@LSOK38 Thanks for the correction.
You mean it is not cheese?
@@gerardosalazar161 I'm afraid it's not. I was planning to visit with a box of crackers and a thermos full with tea. But science destroyed that dream…
Great fun film,love it,its strange now we have coloured pressure suits for astronauts! not so stupid after all.
EXCELLENT MOVIE! In COLOR NO LESS!( guessing it wasnt originally but dont know. HEINLEIN WAS TECHNICAL ADVISOR-GOOD THING THEY HAD THOSE SQUISHY BEDS TO HELP? With the G Force/..... IVE seen stills and read articles from
Likely STARLOG MAGAZINE( sadly gone) but THIS WAS THE FIRST TOME IVE EVER SEEN THIS MOVIE!! Check out those CLASSIC CAR LINES!
Its pretty interesting how they figured back then that SPACE FLIGHT WOULD NEED TO BE PRIVATELY FUNDED! And IN TEXAS
-i think we know whos down that-away doing just that! And the Rocket ship design is pretty close-likely this movie was one of the inspirations! PERSONALLY I THINK ELONS ROCKETS NEED WIDER LANDING FIND LIKE THIS ONE! Especially with uneven ground to land on! ( that probably to much drag-si just pop them out further like the fancy movie ladder.
Old movies always have HUGE INTERIORS! HENCE HUGE ROCKETS
I TOO THINK THIS DESIGNS PRETTY COOL. Duck Dogers did too.
So did anyone notice the LEAD ACTORS NAME
JOHN ARCHER-
STAR TREK ENTERPRISE
CAPTAIN JOHNATHEN ARCHER OF THE NX-01
THAT CANT BE
A COINCIDENCE !! Can it🖖
The movie was color from the start.
They take off in a rocket and nobody put on a space suit.
Gruss ich an allen Spitale Weltweiten Wirtschaftskrise zur Begründungen erklären bitteschön........................!

25:35 Calculus excitement,!
38:15 *I could have sworn that in one of my earliest viewings that Sweeny also said "...and out!".*
*The flash in the upper right corner is a signal to the projectionist to change reels.*
*I think the "...and out" was lost in the video conversion. TCM and by DVD don't have it either.*
Great movie well done love seeing it in color great acting. THANK YOU.
The Blurb for this movie makes it sound almost prescient of the first HLS Starship crewed landing, formerly scheduled for Artemis 3.
Instead of falling over, Starship runs out of fuel...actually, Starship HASN'T enough fuel to return to LEO without lessening the cargo...
Imagine Elon Musk feigning he can't hear a gov bureocrat with a court order to stop him from taking off to Mars, 'can't hear a word you say!' ... priceless!!
20:03 Why are they hammering nails in a rocket? You can clearly hear the hammering.
I am looking for a film, but I can't remember the name of the film.
It starts with an expedition to the moon, which finds the ruins of an old civilization and signs of a previous human expedition.
They track down the survivors of the first expedition who then tell the story of the first mission to moon.
They went the moon using an anti-gravity device invented by an old scientist.
On the moon they find a civilization of giant ants.
At the end of the film the old scientist decides to stay on the moon to live among the ants.
But then the survivors of the first expedition remember that the old scientist had a cold...
From The Earth To the Moon, 1958.
@@JS-fe8sx Almost!
I have just found it, it is 1964 "First Men In The Moon", based on HG Wells.
Thanks anyway!
You’re absolutely right. I had the right movie in mind, wrong movie to write down.@@hcm9999
Ta da oyth!
The backward tilted scription tablet in the trailer reminded me to "Star wars",
But Gerorg Lucas idea was to tilt it even more, so that it seems the text is floting and disappearing in space. The effect is here not so impressive, but the idea is the same.
I wonder, if George Lucas has seen this trailer and used the idea, but better executed it.
many years ago, the moon had a lot of creatures on it that were really bad, that is why it is so holy.
Great special effects and lunar scenery (even if it is not realistic with what we know now). Only thing I didn't like was the stars which were all the same brightness and too uniformly dispersed. They could have done much better on that,
Years later the song was sung on Star Trek TOS.
You could almost call this movie “The Elon Musk Story” This movie contains a lot of truths…we went to the moon in 1969 as a preliminary military operation. There was a plan to build a military base on the moon, the USA knowing that, like was quoted in the movie “he who controls the moon, controls the Earth”.
What a mess they left behind.
GOOD FILM AND I CAN HEAR IT WITHOUT HEADPHONES EVEN BETTER 👍👍👍
What is Sweeny's accent ? "Woik" (work), "Goil" (girl)
New Joisey accent
Operation Paperclip
It's amazing what these sleezeball untrained astronauts could achieve in a rushed short period of time
This looks inspired by Tintin.
If only someone had thought of a way to jettison the bottom of the craft with the empty fuel tanks and structure... 😂
Alaska is bigger than Texas.
I like how the G-Forces only affect their faces and nothing else.
Nice they had hundreds of pounds of wrenches and hacksaws and stuff was metal, not plastic
So Magnetic shoes stick to aluminum/titanium rockets?
he fired the rocket at one second (left)
Elon Musk’s Starship. Hasn’t grown up.
How come the stuff in the draw didn't float?
Spotify app add...hamara pass RUclips hy😂😂😂
So.. in the thumbnail.. what is the moon like object behind the rocket on the moon?
Earth after a Total Nuclear War; America in the 50s was obsessed with it: they were working towards it.
That general is not confidence inspiring
The Woody Woodpecker cartoon should be shown to all Flat-Earthers, although it does have a glaring error- the gravity of the Earth doesn’t “switch off” when a rocket leaves the atmosphere. Instead the rocket is going fast enough that it’s orbit is missing the Earth and too fast for Earth to pull it back.
It didn't say that. Watch it again.
If that is true then why do they attach balloons to the satellites
Do you know what’s funny seems there is a hidden meaning in that video it seems that they’re saying to me in order to believe what they’re saying to you is you have to be a birdbrain To bye into that story ,,,, Kind of like they are mocking you for your beliefs and calling you a bird brain,,,,,
I had faith in Joe Sweeney all the way - he’s from Brooklyn, you bunch’a mugs.
Or… sez Sweeny, “Hey, guys! My space suit is heavier than my harmonica, gimme a minute. Mmmmph…”
Somebody said it was Humphrey Bogart, but I really think that must be a joke...I don't think that was Bogie!!??!!
@@mikeweir3680 Naw. Bogie would have been more of a hang dog look dealing with a weightless stomach. There is a film with Bogart as a test pilot of a super duper jet
10:20 EVERYBODY smokes 🤣🤣🤣
Now I understand the real cover up of the moon landings... The Gemini programs were a cover for the Disney program. 😅

would a rocket be made of ferrous metal?
