A scientifically accurate version of Back to the Future where as soon as he goes back in time he finds himself floating in space because Earth has more moved far away.
Then he dies without air and the movie ends.

"Ah but the Flux capacitor calculates and repositions the car"
It would arrive at a different velocity.
Earth moves at 67000mph. It also rotates at 1000mph. The car would either be instantly crushed, launched into space or burst in flames.

So yeah, go ahead and build your fancy time travel machine, so smart...
Ok so the Flux capacitor would also change the velocity instantly to align everything.
Passenger would be crushed by inertia.
Keep trying to fix it and it keeps getting uglier.

In conclusion what doc built was a virtual reality device and he in fact spends the whole three movies inside the same car that is now connected directly to his brain.
He then starves to death because he thinks he's eating but the car is eating him. Matrix.
People brought to my attention that the dog travels in time first. It's a trip 1 minute into the future, so earth would have moved ~10 thousand miles by then. Earth radius is ~4 thousand miles so the dog would still die in space, but at least he would get to have a nice view
Moon is ~200000 miles away so no, dog would not land on the moon. Just empty space.
Also de instant decompression would cause the car to go boom but now we're splitting hair here.
