Reis naar de Maan in 28 Dagen en 12 Uren

by Jules Verne

In Jules Verne's humorous tale, 'Reis naar de Maan in 28 Dagen en 12 Uren,' an American inventor, seeking a new purpose after the Civil War, sets his sights on a daring project: building a giant cannon to launch a projectile to the moon. This story, one of Verne's earliest ventures into science fiction, reflects the scientific understanding of the time while offering a whimsical journey into the possibilities of space exploration.
