    Woman in the Moon (German Frau im Mond) is a science fiction silent film that premiered 15 October 1929 at the UFA-Palast am Zoo cinema in Berlin to an audience of 2,000.

    It is often considered to be one of the first "serious" science fiction films. It was written and directed by Fritz Lang, based on the novel The Rocket to the Moon by his collaborator Thea von Harbou, his wife at the time. It was released in the USA as By Rocket to the Moon and in the UK as Woman in the Moon.

    The basics of rocket travel were presented to a mass audience for the first time by this film, including the use of a multi-stage rocket. The film was shot between October 1928 and June 1929 at the UFA studios in Neubabelsberg near Berlin.

    Lang, who also made Metropolis, had a personal interest in science fiction. Several prescient technical/operational features are presented during the film's 1920's launch sequence, which subsqequently came into common operational use during America's postwar space race:

    -The rocket ship Friede is fully built in a tall building and moved to the launch padas launch approaches, the launch team counts down the seconds from ten to zero ("now" was used for zero), and Woman in the Moon is often cited as the first occurrence of the "countdown to zero" before a rocket launch.

    -The rocket ship blasts off from a pool of water; water is commonly used today on launch pads to absorb and dissipate the extreme heat and to damp the noise generated by the rocket exhaustin space.

    -The rocket ejects its first stage and fires its second stage rocket, predicting the development of modern multistage orbital rockets.

    -The crew recline on horizontal beds to cope with the G-forces experienced during lift-off and pre-orbital acceleration.

    -Floor foot straps are used to restrain the crew during zero gravity (Velcro is used today).

    Rocket scientist Hermann Oberth worked as an advisor on this movie. He had originally intended to build a working rocket for use in the film, but time and technology prevented this from happening.

    The film was popular among the rocket scientists in Wernher von Braun's circle at the Verein für Raumschiffahrt (VfR).

    The first successfully launched V-2 rocket at the rocket-development facility, in Peenemünde, had the "Frau im Mond" logo painted on its base.

    Noted post-war science writer Willy Ley also served as a consultant on the film. Thomas Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow, which deals with the V-2 rockets, refers to the movie, along with several other classic German silent films.

    Could this Film be a blueprint for NASA, and other space agencies, as many other people suggest?

    Thanks - interesting info above.
    Got me thinking, have there ever been any female SSP whistleblowers claiming to have been to lunar bases ?

    No woman has been to the moon?
    At the level of the soul ?, of the entity, we are all in our planetary stays on the Moon, so all the theories would be false ?, it is a question, it is not an affirmation.
    When we know that we live in a world built in lies, which is the expression in these qualities of the Moon.
    Why so many questions about the moon in this forum, is that there is something to understand you don't think?
    Look for the Moon where it is and not where it is not ...
