Stellar dreams

[LN400]

Here is perhaps the oldest sci-fi movie ever made: A Trip To The Moon (Le Voyage Dans La Lune) from 1902!! One can laugh at how they depict the moon but as someone else correctly stated: This movie is closer in time to the French revolution than to 2016! 67 years would pass until Eagle landed on the moon in 1969.

As for the colours, believe it or not but the colours were added back then, believed to be lost, found and restored so enjoy.

Now as for the purpose of this thread. If you have some oddity of a document related to the dream of space travel, the more obscure the better, the odder the better, then please share. Perhaps this could be a collection of documents on how we have dreamt on space travel for a very long time and how we still dream of it.

It is, isn't it! It's near impossible now to imagine how much of an impact that movie had on buddying film makers back then and even much, much later it kept inspiring, not to mention how future physicists and cosmologists may have been inspired by it when they saw it on the big screen when they were kids in 1902-1903. One can only guess. Another flick from the same director, I had no idea existed until just now and just wait and see where they are going this time. Mad and marvelous, so enjoy:
