The first SF movie of the 1950s and actually one of the first, if not the first, of the "Rocket-with-Astronauts-Goes-to-Space" type. It is still kept close to home here, because people go to the moon. Incidentally, Destination Moon has an educational character here and there. That Woody Woodpecker video, for example, was intended for the widest possible audience (young & old), I think. It just makes the movie more fun actually .
