Description - Round the Moon
After being fired out of the giant Columbiad, the bullet-shaped projectile along with its three passengers, Barbicane, Nicholl and Michel Ardan, begins the five-day trip to the Moon. A few minutes into the journey, a small, bright Meteor passes within a few hundred yards of them, but luckily does not collide with the projectile. The meteor had been captured by the Earth`s gravity and had become a second moon. It is then discovered by the three astronauts that the gravitational force of this satellite has caused the projectile to deviate from its course, sending it into orbit around the moon, as Barbicane, Ardan and Nicholl begin geographical observations with Opera glasses. The projectile then dips over the northern hemisphere of the moon, into the darkness of its shadow. It is plunged into extreme cold, before emerging into the light and heat again. They are now approaching the southern hemisphere. From the safety of their projectile, they gain spectacular views of Tycho, one of the greatest of all craters on the moon.But then the projectile begins to MOVE slowly away from the moon, towards the `dead point` (the place of which the gravitational attraction of the moon and earth becomes equal). Michel Ardan then hits upon the idea of using the rockets...
