Salvage(1979)

Salvage is a sci-fi comedy pilot about an ambitious junkman who convinces two young companions to join him on a daring mission to the moon. Their goal: recover millions in abandoned space equipment using nothing but a homemade rocket. What begins as a get-rich-quick scheme becomes a test of ingenuity, friendship, and survival as the ragtag crew navigates the challenges of space travel and lunar salvage operations. Equal parts adventure and humor, the film captures the spirit of 1960s optimism while poking fun at the space race era. With minimal resources but maximum ambition, the trio must overcome technical obstacles and their own inexperience to pull off the heist of a lifetime on humanity's nearest neighbor.
