No, see, it will be very real. Nothing like the show. We launch this ring thing into orbit, then we attach really long rubber bands between it and the passenger capsule. Then we simply released the capsule from the big ass tripod holding the rubber bands in tension. Theoretically that capsule would definitely get to the Moon that much quicker.
