A #JimmyWebb number inspired by the #RobertAHeinlein sci-fi novel of the same name. Which all of us engineering nerds love. 🤓

Photo of a smiling man (me) holding up a colorful metal lunchbox. On it are the words "Tom Corbett, Space Cadet." Pictured are several people wearing space suits working in a rugged landscape. In the distance, a cigar-shaped rocket with short wings and swept tail fins has landed. Photo copyright 2020 by William S. Higgins.
Ahem… @beamjockey.bsky.social.
Yup, in 2008 I gave a talk about #RobertAHeinlein and space suits. He wrote about them many times. And left the impression that he was involved in pressure-suit research in the 1940s.
I investigated his history. Not that simple.
Questions? Fire away!

Two men stand in the lobby of a movie theater, with pictures of landscapes hanging on the wall behind them. Criswell is entirely covered by the bulky space suit, which has distinctive padded rings at elbows and knees to suggest convolute pressure-suit joints. He wears cylindrical oxygen tanks on his back, and his head is covered by a bulbous silver helmet with a flat transparent window in front. Heinlein, a middle-aged balding man with a moustache, reaches out to adjust an electronic control on Criswell's belt. The scene is the Colorado Springs Chief Theater. Photo appeared in the Colorado Springs Gazette Telegraph on October 23, 1950, page 9.
The iconic space suit costumes also became a handy tool for promoting the movie.
Many extra #DestinationMoon suits were made, and theater employees wore them throughout the US—eventually, throughout the world.
Here, usher Bud Criswell, dressed for the Moon, poses with #RobertAHeinlein.

Posing in the instrument-covered cabin of the Moon rocket set, left to right: Actor-spaceman Dick Wesson, wearing a space suit without a helmet; director Irving Pichel wearing suit and tie, glamorous TV host Dorothy Gardiner, wearing a blouse and skirt, screenwriter #RobertAHeinlein wearing a jacket over a sweater and white shirt. Photo is a screengrab from the documentary series THE CITY AT NIGHT, by TV station KTLA.
The CITY AT NIGHT episode serves well as a making-of-#DestinationMoon documentary.

Cover of ASTOUNDING SCIENCE FICTION magazine, July 1950 issue. Text reads "Shooting 'Destination Moon' by Robert A. Heinlein." A color photo from the film portrays space crew, each wearing a different color space suit, working on the surface of the Moon near their rocket. The tailfins and exhaust nozzle of the rocket are visible, as is a ladder with its bottom touching the ground, rising upward along the body of the spaceship. One crewman is setting up a telescope of roughly 20 centimeters aperture; gas cylinders and other items of equipment have been unloaded.
You could read "Shooting #DestinationMoon" by screenplay co-author & science adviser #RobertAHeinlein, already a major #ScienceFiction writer, in ASTOUNDING SCIENCE FICTION for July 1950, page 6.
This would have appeared on newsstands several weeks before the late June premiere of the film.
