The 12 astronauts who walked on the Moon were Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong, Alan Bean, Gene Cernan, Pete Conrad, Moss Duke, James Irwin, Stuart Roosa, Jack Schmidt, Dave Scotts, Al Shepard, and Jim Young.

Lady Moon gave the town a lot to talk about.Catherine (Kate) first showed up as Mrs. Gartman whose husband had a homesteadon the Upper Pine Creek. She worked part-time at the Elkhorn Lodge taking inwash. Her life changed on day when Cecil Moon dropped by. He came to Fort Collins as a Remittance Man, sent out from England to stayat the Roxbys.

Roxby, a retired English army man, had a beautifulranch called The Grange. The Roxbys had made a business of making a home foryoung English men whose parents paid anywhere from $300 to $500 a year fortheir sons to experience life on a ranch.

The word soon got out that Cecil Moon was the oldestson and a direct heir of his grandfather, Sir Richard Moon, then Chairman ofthe Great Western Railway Company in England. Not only was Cecil in linefor the title of Baron but he also had a considerable estate in England.

Kate also heard the news about Cecil and set out tocapture his affections. This was not a hard job as she was a handsome andshapely Irish lass with gorgeous blue eyes, rosy Irish cheeks and black hair.She was also healthy and strong and could take care of any man. She could ridea horse like no one else. She soon divorced Frank and married Cecil.

Shortly after their marriage, both Cecil’s Father andGrandfather died and he soon acquired the title Sir Cecil Moon and Catherinebecame Lady Catherine Moon. They madea trip back to England in the 1900’s where Cecil’s family thought Kate wasquite scandalous and had unconventional Western ways. His family refused toaccept Lady Moon as the proper recipient of the family title and madearrangements to get rid of her by paying her a large sum of money to return –alone – to the United States.However, Catherine and Sir Cecil soonreturned to Coloradotogether and Sir Cecil tried desperately to divorce.Catherine controlled all the money andproperty in the divorce and became the first woman to pay alimony to herex-husband. Eventually generous terms were made and Cecil was granted hisdivorce.

While she was still married, Cecil and Lady Moon hadpurchased a beautiful ranch above the Elkhorn.Many rumors circulated about Catherine including one that she and her ranchforeman were involved in cattle stealing. In addition, she burned down her ownhome to collect the insurance money. Immediately following the fire, Lady Moonhad to borrow a dress to wear but ironically, all of her fine clothes, furs andjewelry that she supposedly had lost to the fire, reappeared in Fort Collins. When sheappeared in town it was usually with a great flourish, wearing a plumed hat,though the rest of her outfit was often disheveled.

Lady Moon ran her ranch like a man. On weekends, Denver businessmenflocked to her ranch house where they could always find a party going on. Manyof the men accompanied her to town during her buying trips escorted by the 20or so mangy flea-bitten dogs who resided at the ranch. She eventually sold herproperty, but not before she and several of her men made bootleg whiskey, whichshe peddled in downtown Fort Collins.Bootleggers often snuggled booze into Fort Collins,usually from the State of Wyomingwhere liquor sales were legal. Lady Moon was once caught trying to sneak liquorinto town in her bloomers. Her bloomers had been specially made with an innerlining to hide her stash.

Lady Moon died in Fort Collins in 1926. It was rumored that shedied of alcohol poisoning but Arlene Ahlbrandt, a local historian, relates thatshe died of cancer. Lady Moon may have had a terrible reputation, but she was awarm, caring individual. When her will was read, it was noted that she sharedher wealth with people less fortunate than she. She gave her jewelry to some ofthe poor women in town and even gave one of her ponies to a little girl she hadbefriended.

Woman in the Moon (GermanFrau im Mond) is a science fictionsilent film that premiered 15 October 1929 at the UFA-Palast am Zoo cinema in Berlin to an audience of 2,000.^[1] It is often considered to be one of the first 'serious' science fiction films.^[2] It was written and directed by Fritz Lang, based on the novel The Rocket to the Moon by his collaborator Thea von Harbou, his wife at the time. It was released in the US as By Rocket to the Moon and in the UK as Woman in the Moon. The basics of rocket travel were presented to a mass audience for the first time by this film, including the use of a multi-stage rocket.^[2][3] The film was shot between October 1928 and June 1929 at the UFA studios in Neubabelsberg near Berlin^[1]

Plot[edit]

Helius (Willy Fritsch) is an entrepreneur with an interest in space travel. He seeks out his friend Professor Mannfeldt (Klaus Pohl), a visionary who wrote a treatise claiming that there was probably much gold on the Moon, only to be ridiculed by his peers. Helius recognizes the value of Mannfeldt's work. However, a gang of evil businessmen have also taken an interest in Mannfeldt's theories, and send a spy (Fritz Rasp) (identified as 'The man who calls himself Walter Turner' in the opening credits).

Meanwhile, Helius's assistant Windegger (Gustav von Wangenheim) has announced his engagement to Helius's other assistant, Friede (Gerda Maurus). Helius, who secretly loves Friede, avoids their engagement party.

On his way home from his meeting with Professor Mannfeldt, Helius is mugged by henchmen of the gang. They steal the research that Professor Mannfeldt had entrusted to Helius, and also burgle Helius's home, taking other valuable material. Turner then presents Helius with an ultimatum: the gang know he is planning a voyage to the Moon; either he includes them in the project, or they will sabotage it and destroy his rocket, which is named Friede. Reluctantly, Helius agrees to their terms.

The rocket team is assembled: Helius; Professor Mannfeldt and his pet mouse Josephine; Windegger; Friede; and Turner. After Friede blasts off, the team discovers that Gustav (Gustl Gstettenbaur), a young boy who has befriended Helius, has stowed away, along with his collection of science fiction pulp magazines.

During the journey, Windegger emerges as a coward, and Helius's feelings for Friede begin to become known to her, creating a romantic triangle.

Once they get to the far side of the Moon, Mannfeldt and Turner prove Mannfeldt's theory that there is gold on the Moon. They struggle in a cave, and Mannfeldt falls to his death in a crevasse. Turner attempts to hijack the rocket, and in the struggle, he is shot and killed. Gunfire damages the oxygen tanks, and they come to the grim realization that there is not enough oxygen for all to make the return trip. One person must remain on the Moon. (In this film, the Moon has a breathable atmosphere on its far side, per the theories of Peter Andreas Hansen, who is mentioned near the beginning of the film.)

Helius and Windegger draw straws to see who must stay and Windegger loses. Seeing Windegger's anguish, Helius decides to drug Windegger and Friede with a last drink together and take Windegger's place, letting Windegger return to Earth with Friede. Friede senses that something is in the wine. She pretends to drink and then retires to the compartment where her cot is located, closes and locks the door. Windegger drinks the wine, becoming sedated. Helius makes Gustav his confidant and the new pilot for the ship. Helius watches it depart, then starts out for the survival camp originally prepared for Windegger. He discovers that Friede has decided to stay with him on the Moon. They embrace, and Helius weeps into her shoulder while Friede strokes his hair and whispers words of comfort to him.

Influence[edit]

Lang, who also made Metropolis, had a personal interest in science fiction. When returning to Germany in the late 1950s he sold his extensive collection of Astounding Science Fiction, Weird Tales, and Galaxy magazines.^[4] Several prescient technical/operational features are presented during the film's 1920s launch sequence, which subsequently came into common operational use during America's postwar space race:

Lady On The Moon Neon Light

• The rocket ship Friede is fully built in a tall building and moved to the launch pad
• As launch approaches, the launch team counts down the seconds from ten to zero ('now' was used for zero), and Woman in the Moon is often cited as the first occurrence of the 'countdown to zero' before a rocket launch^[2][5]
• The rocket ship blasts off from a pool of water; water is commonly used today on launch pads to absorb and dissipate the extreme heat and to damp the noise generated by the rocket exhaust
• In space, the rocket ejects its first stage and fires its second stage rocket, predicting the development of modern multistage orbital rockets
• The crew recline on horizontal beds to cope with the G-forces experienced during lift-off and pre-orbital acceleration
• Floor foot straps are used to restrain the crew during zero gravity (Velcro is used today).

These items and the overall design of the rocket led to the film being banned in Germany from 1933–1945^[6] during World War II by the Nazis, due to similarities to their secret V-2 project.

Rocket scientist Hermann Oberth worked as an advisor on this movie. He had originally intended to build a working rocket for use in the film, but time and technology prevented this from happening. The film was popular among the rocket scientists in Wernher von Braun's circle at the Verein für Raumschiffahrt (VfR). The first successfully launched V-2 rocket at the rocket-development facility in Peenemünde had the Frau im Mond logo painted on its base.^[7] Noted post-war science writer Willy Ley also served as a consultant on the film. Thomas Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow, which deals with the V-2 rockets, refers to the movie, along with several other classic German silent films.
