Walt Disney's Man and the Moon (1957).
After consulting with scientists Disney artists and studio technicians prepared a factual picture of how the coming conquest of the moon. Ward Kimble was the Director and designer on how it may be when we travel to the moon.

This film was made 13 years before we were ever on the moon!
The Disney "Moon" series was inspiring. As a kid in the 50's, those images really sparked my imagination. Much is covered in the "Spaceship Handbook" by Jack Hagerty, with illustrations and technical drawings by Jon C. Rogers. Although originally inspired by Werner Von Braun (German rocket scientist responsible for the V2 attacks on England), the "Mars and Beyond" series was the best. When I think of the models I built based on those Disney series. The RM-1 moon ship, the Douglas Rocket to the Moon (the miniature over the pizza place in Tomorrowland is based on the original there before the Astro rockets).
