From the Earth to the Moon

ENDORSEMENTS

“Jules Verne imagined daring journeys shaped by science and wonder. This annotated edition and companion essays beautifully illuminate his vision and explore what it still reveals about the promise and challenges of space exploration today.”
—Laurie Leshin, University Professor for Space Futures at Arizona State University; former Director of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory

“From Verne’s big guns to modern societal unrest, this critical edition is a timely and thought-provoking look at how science fiction from the past coincides with our modern moon quest, posing complex questions about science and exploration.”
—‎Sian Leo Proctor, artist; astronaut; author of EarthLight and Space Poet

“I strongly recommend this new edition of Verne’s classic tale. Its richly annotated translation and original illustrations are top-notch, and the scholarly essays linking the novel to today’s ‘spacefaring age’ are very thought-provoking.”
—‎Arthur B. Evans, Professor Emeritus at DePauw University; author of Jules Verne Rediscovered
