A visionary silent-era space opera that balances scientific ambition with human conflict and romantic tension, grounded in the wonder and strangeness of early cinema's approach to the future.

A scientist discovers that there's gold on the moon. He builds a rocket to fly there, but there's too much rivalry among the crew to have a successful expedition.
