action
The somewhat confused Professor Abundio designed the moon rocket Lunave (Spanish for luna and nave = moon ship ), with which Mexico is supposed to be the first nation on earth to conquer the moon. He gave the bizarre inventor Bartolo an iron to repair that belongs to Abundio's attractive daughter Estelita.
After Bartolo has repaired the iron, he wants to personally deliver it to Estelita. He manages to get to the airfield of the moon rocket, which is guarded by the military. Estelita happens to be alone in the moon rocket, while Don Abundio and the minister responsible for Mexican space travel are in the control center of the airfield. Bartolo accidentally triggers Lunave's starting mechanism with the iron and the couple flies to the moon.
A lizard-like race lives underground on the moon and is ruled by a malevolent, disembodied giant brain that only has a gigantic tentacle eye. The brain wants to destroy the earth with the help of a flying saucer and also falls in love with Estelita, whom it wants to marry.
But Bartolo and Estelita, who have since fallen in love, manage to escape with Lunave . However, they are chased by the brain with the flying saucer . There is a showdown in which the brain is destroyed. Bartolo and Estelita have saved the earth and are returning to Mexico.
Trivia
Most of the space scenes come from the US production Endstation Mond ; the shots of the flying saucer of the moon brain from the British film Devil Girl from Mars .
