Sis valents astronautes viatgen en una càpsula espacial de la Terra a la Lluna. La primera pel·lícula de ciència-ficció de la història va ser obra de la imaginació del director francès i mag Georges Méliès (1861-1938), que es va inspirar en les obres "From the Earth to the Moon" (1865) de Julio Verne i "First Men in the Moon" (1901) d'H. G. Wells. Es tracta d'un curtmetratge de 14 minuts de durada realitzat amb l'astronòmic pressupost per a l'època de 10.000 francs, suposava gens menys que la pel·lícula número 400 del realitzador francès, i obria al món del cinema una nova porta per explicar històries fantàstiques i de ciència-ficció mitjançant l'ús de trucs i efectes especials. En 2011 la pel·lícula va ser reestrenada a Cannes en un programa doble al costat del documental "Li Voyage Extraordinaire". La versió restaurada i en color del curtmetratge de 1902 incloïa a més escenes extra i una altra banda sonora.
