To acknowledge the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11 and the opening of the Museum’s Moon Exhibition we bring you this film version of the HG Wells’ novel. When scientists in the year 1964 are confused by evidence on the moon of a Victorian era space flight, nonagenarian Arnold Bedford (Edward Judd) explains all…

Back in 1899, Bedford, eccentric scientist Joseph Cavor (Lionel Jeffries) and heroine Kate Callender (Martha Hyer) took a trip to the moon in a home-made space vehicle. This is their story.
