There's a parrot here on Youtube posting the same uneducated crap over and over again on just about every Apollo related site. It has several accounts and even answers itself under different names.

Corny but kinda cool. So lame now but I bet 1950's nerds were bouncing off the ceiling after this.

How can you ignore people like the one I'm commenting on? These people are truly stupid... I'm sure if you'd never seen a computer you'd think it fiction too.

@500mlBEERCAN You sir are obviously uneducated. As the movie might state. You're like woody woodpecker.

Have a OWS occupier watch 16:51 - 19:22 and watch his brains melt.

Substitute Mars for Moon and have the CEOs from Boeing, Lockheed, and Northrup Grumman among others watch this movie.

I love it ! It's a classic !

Nicely done- for over 60 years ago!

And I noticed that the screen play and the tech supervisor was Robert Heinlein who was a wonderful SF writer from the 40's,50's and 60's. His first editions books are much valued, and he was decades ahead of his time.

people today need to realize how cutting edge this all was- we take it for granted now, but when I was a kid this was the stuff dreams are made of.

The reason i don't like this movie as much as i probably should is because the characters are not likable, its makes me wonder why these idiots were chosen to go instead of competent people. But again, its just a movie.

Was ambient music non-existant in the 50's?

Hah!! This is a blatant Tintin ripoff!!!
