This is one of my favourite films, made by Georges Méliès in 1902. I've seen ne or two re-makes of it, one for a New Zealand insurance company and the other a music video for The Smashing Pumpkins.
There is another version out there in which the moon actually swallows the rocket and spits out a bright yellow flame. You can watch the black-and-white rocket -in-the-eye version here. If anyone has heard of the other version which has yellow colour tinting added, I'd be interested to know.
