From the Earth to the Moon by Jules Vern Jules Verne Paperback

Verne's 1865 tale of a trip to the moon is (as you'd expect from Verne) great fun, even if bits of it now seem, in retrospect, a little strange. To the moon?. There are other similarities, too. Coincidence -- or fact!?.

Title: From the Earth to the Moon by Jules Verne, Fiction, Fantasy & MagicAuthor: Verne, JulesPublisher: AegypanBinding: PaperbackPages: 136Dimensions: 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.32dProduct Weight: 0.46 lbs.Language: EnglishISBN: 9781598184549Verne's 1865 tale of a trip to the moon is (as you'd expect from Verne) great fun, even if bits of it now seem, in retrospect, a little strange. Our rocket ship gets shot out of a cannon? To the moon? Goodness! But in other ways it's full of eerie bits of business that turned out to be very near reality: he had the cost, when you adjust for inflation, almost exactly right. There are other similarities, too. Verne's cannon was named the Columbiad; the Apollo 11 command module was named Columbia. Apollo 11 had a three-person crew, just as Verne's did; and both blasted off from the American state of Florida. Even the return to earth happened in more-or-less the same place. Coincidence -- or fact!? We say you'll have to read this story yourself to judge.
