Fly Me to the Moon combines the Apollo 11 mission with a whimsical twist involving three tween-age flies who go along on an incredible space adventure. The Strasenburgh Planetarium's first animated giant-screen film, Fly Me to the Moon introduces new generations to space exploration and the historic moment when the world was united for this awe-inspiring achievement. The story is voiced by talents Kelly Ripa, Christopher Lloyd, Nicollette Sheridan, Tim Curry and a live action/animation cameo by real life Apollo 11 astronaut Buzz Aldrin.
