When should you ask her father for her hand in marriage?
Answer Asking the girls father for her hand in marriage is a bit old fashioned. I'd ask the girl first, see what she says, and ask her what she thinks about going to her father. She may not appreciate that jesture. She should be of an age where she can answer for herself, and doesn't need her father's permission.
In the medieval period did the man have to ask the father for the hand of his daughters marriage?
In Medieval times yes, the man who wanted to marry a father's daughter had to ask for her hand in marriage and if the father rejected the young man then his daughter was not able to see him any longer. Also, in some countries if the father accepted the young man's proposal of his daughter's hand in marriage there would be a dowry (either money or property that the father gave the young man if the father was wealthy and if the father was poor then sometimes the dowry would simply be farm animals, etc.)
Which opera concerns the antics of people on the moon?
il mondo della Luna (The World on the Moon) is an opera buffa by Joseph Haydn with a libretto by Carlo Goldoni. It was first performed in the opera house at the country estate of Esterháza as part of the marriage celebrations for the son of Prince Nikolaus Esterházy. It concerns a rather overprotective father and his opposition to the marriage plans of his two daughters and their maid. The suitor of one of the daughters is an astronomer who informs the father that with his telescope he can see people on the moon and he plans to go there. After drugging the father they 'arrive' on the moon and the father believing he is on the moon sees his daughters marrying the men of their choice. He protests but is berated by the king of the moon. All ends well - the father realises he has been tricked and forgives all when he sees the happiness of his daughters.

It doesn't. The Bible does say some things about marriage, but it doesn't say anything about girlfriends or asking her hand (in fact, in Biblical times, what would have been more likely to happen is that his father and her father would discuss it; or at best he would discuss it with her father).
