The members of the Gun-Club, an artillery club in Baltimore, want to build an enormous cannon, the Columbiad, to send a projectile to the Moon. Verne uses the story to satirize the American mentality of the era and, at the same time, expose in detail the scientific challenges of a trip to space, such as choosing the launch site.

Recommended for readers aged 14 and up and for those interested in classics of science fiction and adventure.
