Le Voyage dans la Lune Duex

Le Voyage dans la Lune, directed by Georges Méliès in 1902, is largely considered one of the most important in cinematic history, and the first science fiction film. If it is such a consequential film, why don't we duplicate its approach at lunar exploration, and aim for the eye? For all we know giant cannon rounds are the best way to carry people into space!

All we have to do is rig a huge cannon, gather some astronauts, and load them in!
