All your favorite Sci-fi actors.

This movie is action-packed with all your favorite sci-fi actors. Half of the fun is trying to figure out where you saw the actor before. Even though this film is based loosely on “Rocket Ship Galileo,” a 1947 novel by Robert A. Heinlein, he had lots of help from Rip Van Ronkel, Writer (screenplay). He who controls the moon controls the earth. So, it is vitally important that the free world gets control first. To do this, we must take baby steps to get there. Naturally, Our Government will not put out the money or manpower. According to the premise of the picture, the government is not capable of doing anything and will have to ask the industrial complex to create their weapons. Unfortunately, if we wait for the government to ask, then it will be too late. There are many hurdles to pass from public apathy to government restrictions. This rocket launch must be now or never. The crew, of course, is selected from a handful of the only qualified scientists and generals. To round off the crew is Joe Sweeney (Dick Wesson), the local dufus added for comic relief, as if they needed comic relief. Joe is sure the rocket will never get off the ground. What do you think? If it does, then the question is, will they ever make it back?
