The professor played by Georges Méliès at the opening tried to persuade his colleagues to participate in a moon landing plan. His proposal was approved, and the scientists took a spacecraft to the moon. The rocket-like spacecraft eventually docked at the "left eye" of the moon, and the moon itself was quite anthropomorphic. Scientists were arrested by "bad guys" on the moon and brought to their "kings", but the earthlings discovered that these bad guys on the moon could not stand the touch of an umbrella and disappeared in a cloud of smoke. In the end they returned to Earth, but fell into the ocean and visited the underwater world by the way. They were finally rescued and the scientists also received awards.
