That's why Heinlein cowrote the script, I suppose, and was a
technical consultant for the film.


Good work, Doug!!! Now we know that you're not only igorant, but
gullible too! RH was not the technical advisor, except for publicity
sake. George Pal himself admitted this in the mid 70's before his
death. The real technical advisor was Chesley Bonestell. Look him up.
He's a well known sci fi artist who served on ALL of Pal's pictures and
aided in both the look and execution of effects sequences. His study of
space science was well in advance if RH's at the time. In addition Pal
sought more help from scientists who went uncredited.
You are one dumb guy believing that crap.
