Soon after the end of the Civil War, a group of enthusiasts, the "Gun Club", gathers in Baltimore, its leader Impey Barbican intends to create a cannon whose projectile could reach the Moon after firing.
At first, the strange device was not planned to have a crew. However, the brave traveler Michel Ardan made adjustments, and as a result, three people went into space: Ardan himself, Barbican and Captain Nicole.
Will everyone return alive from this daring, unimaginable flight? And what wonders will the fearless trio see on the Moon?
Jules Verne's fantastic dilogy about the journey of a group of amateur astronauts to the Moon still finds its enthusiastic readers all over the world. Of course, its technical part cannot help but make you smile now, but, oddly enough, the author managed to predict the location of the spaceport at Cape Canaveral and many details of future space flights.
