Stories from the set

In the film, the Apollo 11 launch site is referred to as Cape Canaveral. And that would be natural for Agent J, but not for the young Agent K, since the cape was renamed Cape Kennedy after President Kennedy's assassination in 1963. The name changed back to Cape Canaveral only in 1973, after the Apollo 11 launch.

The striking strip on a matchbox is located on its back side. In 1969, such strips were located on the front. They were moved for safety by a law from 1973.

Papua New Guinea gained independence in 1975. The national flag was adopted on July 1, 1971. Accordingly, in 1969 this flag did not yet exist, yet it is clearly visible in several shots during the speech before the launch of Apollo 11.

When young Jay and Kay go to eat pie, the waitress places the plate of pie in front of Kay. In the next shot, when he is talking to Agent Jay, his mouth is already full.

Countdown clocks displayed at the launch of Apollo 11 in 1969 did not exist.

The Spanish flag waving in the wind during the launch scene at Cape Canaveral is the country's current flag. Under Franco's regime in 1969, Spain had a different flag (a coat of arms with a black eagle).

The cars on Coney Island visible behind Agents Jay and Kay have rectangular headlights, which did not exist in 1969.

The lunar module visible next to the prison at the beginning of the film is presumably the «Apollo 11 Eagle». In that case, the flag should not be standing (the astronauts reported noticing it move as they left the Moon, unless of course someone moved it).

In the film, the prison on the Moon is located in the upper quadrant of the lunar surface, with the landed «Apollo» next to it. The «Apollo» landing did not take place that far away, mostly only in the equatorial zone.

Responsibility for Cape Kennedy lay with the US Air Force, but all the military personnel the characters encounter wear US Army uniforms.
