Welcome to this new category for Classic Space Travel here at Spacemen’s Luck. Space Travel Movies of the 1950′s and 1960′s is important for those of you, like myself, who got your vision of space travel from the radio and TV of the 1950′s.
In the series “Space Travel Movies” I will have show descriptions, cast members, production credits and plot lines for movies made during the 1950′s and 1960′s. Additionally, I will be adding my own reviews for these classics. Of course I am biased toward any and all science fiction space travel movies, serials, TV shows, radio episodes and books created during those golden days of space travel.
I invite you to take an interest in the classic spacmen vision and add your own comments and reviews for these shows and books. I especially would like to hear about how these movies helped shape your vision of space travel. Is your vision of a space ship that of the one used in the first real space travel movie, Destination Moon by George Pal? That tear drop design was used in several of my favorite space travel movies and is still my vision of a space ship. NASA just can’t get it right!
First up will be the science fiction space travel movie that gave me my “Icon” for what a spaceship should be, George Pal’s 1950′s Destination Moon.
Stay tuned Spacemen!
