- An astronomer falls asleep and has a strange dream involving a fairy queen and the Moon.
- Scientists are looking for a man to send up to be the first man on the moon. A man immune to worry, disease, and even the common cold. They think they have found him until the impossible happens at Woomera.

- A man living on the moon is lonely until Neil Armstrong and company shows up.
- Andy Williams as The Man in the Moon comes down to earth and visits the United States. In his travels from the East coast to the Golden Gate Bridge, he comes across Tony Randall, singers Lisa Kirk and Diahann Carroll, dancers Bambi Linn and James Mitchell, actress Cloris Leachman, actor Jester Hairston, and the Four Saints, song-and-dance group. They perform in settings representing different U.S. locales.
- The Man in the Moon seeks purpose from God as he dances with the love of his life, the Earth, which he names "Blue", through the stars.
- Adam, Evchen, and Manni are looking at the moon through their home-made telescope. Evchen isn't interested, and dismisses the moon as a lump of cheese. Manni, who is a big fan of technology, sees satellites and a car driving over the moon's surface. But Adam hears the moon speak, and hears it ask for flowers to cover its surface. From then on, Adam is determined to breed a kind of flower that can grow on the moon. Although he is made fun of at school and is yelled at by his father, who develops extra-nutritious vegetables for Professor Vitamin, Adam keeps trying. Eventually things take a positive turn. Kondensmaxe, in his airplane, finds Professor Vitamin's old magic greenhouse. It turns out the Professor was herself concerned with developing such a flower, before the war, and is willing to assist Adam in his research. Manni and Evchen support him every step of the way, and so does Adam's grandfather. Eventually Adam's mother even convinces her husband to assist the children as well, although he believes that flowers are something "for poets and women." Even he is finally persuaded to abandon the purely useful for the extraordinarily beautiful. What is particularly charming about this movie is the magic found in the every-day. The clips of growing flowers seem just as magical as the idea of a flower on the moon. The university seen from the perspective of a child is just as impressive as the bewitched greenhouse in the middle of the woods. Suddenly anything is possible. The happy message of the film is to fight for what you believe in, as Adam does. That Adam convinces skeptics to help him is almost more important than the successful development of the moon flower.

The moon seems to get the worst of it and a comet appears, transforming into a beautiful woman, who remonstrates with him for the trouble caused. The moon enters a complaint against her antagonist and three stars sit as judges to hear the case. The legal battle is terminated in favor of the lover. He, however, implores the pardon of the court and is discharged, whereupon he drops down to earth into the arms of his sweetheart, who is glad to see him.
