From the Earth to the Moon is an anticipation novel by Jules Verne, published in 1865. It relates how, after the end of the Civil War, an association of artillerymen and scientists linked to the military industry tried to send a shell inhabited by three men to the Moon. From the Earth to the Moon forms the first part of a diptych, which ends with Around the Moon, published four years later. Several characters from these novels are re-staged in Sans dessus dessous, published twenty years later, without much success, then rediscovered in 1975.The work is one of Jules Verne's best-known novels. It has become a reference in the field of science fiction, with many heirs such as H. G. Wells' novel The First Men in the Moon, in 1901. The novel has been adapted many times on the screen, for cinema and television, as early as 1902 with Georges Méliès and his Journey to the Moon.

About From The Earth To The Moon And Round The Moon by Jules Verne From the Earth to the Moon (French: De la terre à la lune) is an 1865 novel by Jules Verne. It tells the story of the Baltimore Gun Club, a post-American Civil War society of weapons enthusiasts, and their attempts to build an enormous sky-facing Columbiad space gun and launch three people—the Gun Club's president, his Philadelphian armor-making rival, and a French poet—in a projectile with the goal of a moon landing. The story is also notable in that Verne attempted to do some rough calculations as to the requirements for the cannon and, considering the comparative lack of any data on the subject at the time, some of his figures are surprisingly close to reality. However, his scenario turned out to be impractical for safe manned space travel since a much longer muzzle would have been required to reach escape velocity while limiting acceleration to survivable limits for the passengers. The character of Michel Ardan, the French poet in the novel, was inspired by the real-life photographer Félix Nadar.
