Special Presentation by Spirit Talk Show

Earth’s first rocket ship hurtles through space on its historic voyage to the Moon — until catastrophe strikes. Systems fail. Trajectory falters. And the crew faces the terrifying truth that their mission, and their lives, may never return home.

At the final moment, a mysterious ship appears. Onboard is Dantro — The Planet Man, a guardian of interplanetary peace who intervenes just as the doomed lunar craft spirals toward destruction. His daring rescue sparks an alliance that will carry Earth’s explorers far beyond the Moon and into the unfolding wonders and dangers of a vast galactic civilization.

First broadcast around 1953, Orbit the Moon stands as the dramatic beginning to one of early radio’s most imaginative space adventures — now re-envisioned and performed by the Spirit Talk Show ensemble with modern sound artistry, narrative clarity, and the unmistakable performance of Doyle.
