The First Men in the Moon
(eBook)
Description
What If Bedford and Cavor Landed on the Moon? 'Over me, about me, closing in on me, embracing me ever nearer, was the Eternal, that which was before the beginning and that which triumphs over the end, that enormous void in which all light and life and being is but the thin and vanishing splendour of a falling star, the cold, the stillness, the silence, the infinite and final Night of space.' The First Man in the Moon ignited the imagination of the 19th century society over what lies on (and beneath) the surface of the Moon, well before Neil Armstrong's first Moon landing. Upon discovering a substance that could negate gravity, businessman Bedford and scientist Cavor set out on a journey to the natural satellite of our planet. There they discover a sophisticated alien civilization.
