More data came from America and, strangely, even more from Russian sources". "With the consent of the British Air Ministry, certain top-secret information -including experiments in rocket propulsion, conditions under tests, and the reactions of bodies to extreme pressure – was made available. In order to make Man in the Moon appear authentic, the production company spent months "in scientific research" so that "those scenes in which the space men are trained for their trip to the moon" were credible. Back in England, he and Polly take part in a test for family planning the three cots by their bed indicate that the test has been successful.

Making his way back to the base, Blood tells the scientists "back to the drawing board". His capsule had ejected from the rocket prematurely, landing him in the Australian outback only a few miles from Woomera, and the "alien" turns out to be a man prospecting for uranium. While exploring he is startled by what appears to be an extraterrestrial being, and then spots a used baked bean can. Three days later he steps out of his capsule onto what appears to be the moon's surface. Once their training is complete, the astronauts are flown to the Woomera rocket base and Blood takes part in what appears to be a completely successful launch. Later, when Polly falls into a river and is in danger of drowning, Leo saves her but allows Blood to take the credit. When the scientists realise that Leo is the saboteur they use a session in a sensory deprivation chamber to brainwash him into believing he is Blood's best friend. Leo becomes insanely jealous and tries to sabotage Blood's training, but he manages to survive the attempt. Spurred by the news of the reward, he decides to continue his training so that he and Polly will be able to afford a new home when he returns. When Blood meets and falls in love with an attractive stripper named Polly ( Field), he begins to lose his immunity. Blood never really fits in with the others and, when a £100,000 reward is posted for the first man to land on the Moon, they seek to sabotage his chances and have one of their number selected instead. He undertakes training with three other potential astronauts, including Leo ( Gray), all more qualified for the job but without Blood's extraordinary resistances. The truth is kept from him because of the danger involved.

He makes a living working for medical researchers who are trying to find cures for various diseases and conditions (notably the common cold and seasickness).īlood is offered a job to become the passenger of a high altitude test flight by Dr Davidson ( Hordern), but the real job is to become the first man to land on the Moon. William Blood ( More) is a man who appears to be immune to all known diseases, and possesses extraordinary resistance to heat and cold – a fact he puts down to his carefree, single life, never being worried by anything.
