JACN^A. FROST Dept. BS 234 Piquette Ave., Detroit 2, Mich. A NEW SCIENCE FILM HELPS MOTIVATE YOUTH "A Trip Id the Moon " "WTiTH World Attention riv'' eted on the missile race between the West and Soviet Russia and the probability of space travel heightened by the Communist Sputniks, a timely and authentic new 16mm color film out of the studios of Encyclopaedia Britannica Films is attracting considerable comment. A Trip lo rhe Moon, a 16-minute subject, was designed and produced around three-dimensional models of Earth's nearest neighbor and from some of the most outstanding photographs from leading observatories. Objective of the film is to show some of the relationships of the Earth to its satellite; to explore the surface of the moon; and to give the viewer a look at Earth from the Moon's surface. One of the models lensed. an eight-inch sphere of the Moon, is the only one of its size on Earth. Hundreds of hours of painstaking labor, based on the latest scientific data, went into both the film and the design and construction of this and other convincing, accurate models. They help to bring the observer within 20.000 feet of the Moon's surface; closeup details were designed and sketched from telescopic observation. The film is a realistic visit by rocket ship to outer space and the site contemplated as "most likely" for early space exploration. Closeup views show enormous cracks and fissures in the Moons surface; rugged, gigantic craters formed ages ago are brought out in startling relief. As a vehicle to interest teen-agers in the far reaches of science and their import. A Trip to Below: leasing lunar globe model lo show phases of moon. Above: racket ship approaches rhe moon craler Copernicus. the Moon promises to add greatly as a motivational and classroom study film. Co-produced by EB Films' art director William Peltz and producer Milan Herzog. the film is now available for outright color print sale at an estimated initial price of $62. ."iO. subject to imminent print price increases on all EBF subjects expected to be announced for January 1.
