From the Earth to the Moon
111.55
From the Earth to the Moon 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 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. Five years later, Verne wrote
a sequel called Around the Moon.
The story is also notable in that Verne attempted to do some rough calculations as
to the requirements for the cannon and in that, considering the comparative lack of
empirical data on the subject at the time, some of his figures are remarkably
accurate. However, his version of a space gun for a non-rocket spacelaunch turned
out to be impractical for safe human space travel since a much longer barrel would
have been required to reach escape velocity while limiting acceleration to
survivable limits for the passengers.
