In 1899, Arnold Bedford and his fiancée Katherine Callender meet an inventor, Joseph Cavor, who has invented Cavorite, a substance that will let anything it is applied to or made of deflect the force of gravity. While exploring the Moon, Bedford and Cavor fall down a vertical shaft and discover to their amazement an insectoid population, the Selenites, living beneath the surface. Bedford attacks a group of Selenite in fear -- killing several, despite Cavor's horrified protests. Bedford and Professor Cavor escape, but Cavor stays on the Moon. After escaping, Bedford flies the ship up
