Project Moonbase

Continuing his Heinlein Centennial-related articles, Dwayne A. Day (writing at The Space Review) looks at Project Moonbase. An ultra-low-budget effort, it was essentially an expanded television show. The amount of involvement that Heinlein had has been debated over the years, but you can see many of his touches: the shuttle rockets, an atom-bomb armed space station, and more.

It's cheap, it's pulp, it's black-and-white, but like Creation of the Humanoids, it has it's moments. Get it on DVD!
