Sam Bell (played by [[The Danza|Sam]] [[Sam Rockwell|Rockwell]]) is an employee contracted by the Korean-based company Lunar Industries to extract helium-3 from lunar soil to fuel nuclear fusion reactors on Earth. He is stationed for a three-year term on the Sarang base, with only a robot named GERTY (voiced by Kevin Spacey) for company, and his only contact with Earth being recorded transmissions he occasionally receives from his wife and three-year-old daughter. Two weeks before completing his assignment, he begins to hallucinate, causing him to crash a lunar rover into one of the helium-3 harvesters.

The first feature film directed by Duncan Jones ([[David Bowie]]'s [[Never Live It Down|son]]), ''Moon'' was shown at the 2009 Sundance and Tribeca Film Festivals, and has received a lot of critical acclaim. It has also been praised for [[Shown Their Work|scientific accuracy]], being screened at NASA's Space Center in Houston at the request of one of the professors there, due to its feature of helium-3 mining. [[David Bowie|Dad]] was reportedly very proud.
