They're not going to have an all Black crew. There's always at least one White guy on board who knows what he's doing.

Predictive programming. Notice the striking similarity of Starship on the Moon to the Luna rocket in the 1950 film Destination Moon. Perhaps it was intentional.

Fairly well done portrayal of a Moon landing 19 years before the real one by Apollo 11. An interesting historical tidbit about the Apollo program was one of the early plans was called 'Direct Ascent' as shown in Destination Moon which involved landing the entire Command/Service Module, plus a descent stage on the lunar surface, then lifting off back to Earth in the CSM. This was considered impractical by some NASA engineers to land a big, heavy 70-foot-tall spacecraft stack on the Moon which might have pushed early 1960s space technology past its limits. But in 1962 NASA adopted the Lunar Orbit Rendezvous plan using a separate Lunar Module which solved this problem. SpaceX's Starship harkens back to Apollo's Direct Ascent, but employing much improved 21st century technology. The planned Mars version of Starship will employ a similar profile .

That was good, but one of the crew members doesn't seem to understand what's going on. He thinks they're speeding up when they're slowing down, and then says that they should go home. He doesn't act like a real astronaut. Otherwise, it was good.

He was the comic relief. Typical in movies of the period.

I'd go to the moon, but we don't have that technology anymore - NASA Asstronot Don Pettit
Yeah, I know you've all seen it, I posted it years ago, but Don Pettit sums them all up so well. |

Starship-derived and launched Skylab-class space station. Not a SpaceX concept or design, but interesting nonetheless.

SpaceX is nearly ready to test-launch Super Heavy, Starship's booster stage, at its Texas launch site. In case the first prototype explodes, this is what an operational launch should look like.
