H G Wells is one of the 'fathers' of Science Fiction. His novel
'The First Men in the Moon' chronicles humanity's first faltering
steps to the stars. The story uses a human-meets-alien adventure to
juxtapose two characters whose temperaments personify the extremes
of scientific endeavour - the disinterested researcher and the
seeker after fame and fortune. Wells' description of spaceflight,
including weightlessness, low-gravity gymnastics on the moon and
re-entry angles for returning spacecraft, have all proved amazingly
prescient. His books have retained their popularity with the public
for more than a century.
