De la terre à la lune, trajet direct en 97 heures 20 minutes by Jules Verne
"De la terre à la lune, trajet direct en 97 heures 20 minutes" by Jules Verne is a science fiction novel published in 1865. After the American Civil War ends, a gun club of artillerymen proposes an audacious project: launching a cannon shell to the Moon. When a French adventurer suggests making the projectile hollow so three men can travel inside, the ambitious plan transforms into humanity's first attempted lunar voyage. This
pioneering work became a cornerstone of science fiction and inspired countless adaptations. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
