The scene on board the spacecraft taking Dr. Floyd to the moon in which the flight attendant walks up the side of the ship's interior and appears to be upside down was filmed with a stationary camera bolted to a room set that revolved, so the actress was always on the bottom but it was she, not the set, that appeared to change position. The technique was invented by silent-film comedian Buster Keaton for the final scene of his 1924 film "The Navigator," in which he and his girlfriend (Kathryn McGuire) are rescued from a derelict ship by a submarine that turns over underwater. The same system was used by Fred Astaire for his solo dance to the song "You're All the World to Me" in "Royal Wedding" (1951).
