viryr's review against another edition

El encanto de leer a Julio Verne siempre ha sido que en la época donde se escribieron sus libros aun no existían muchas de las cosas que describe con tanto detalle o bien aun no se descubrían o fundamentaban ciertos fenómenos.
Es tan fascínate que hablará sobre la Luna y como llegar a ella un siglo antes de poder llegar a ella, el pionero en la ciencia ficción. En pleno 2022 aun nos asombramos y cuestionamos sobre la Luna y sobre todo el cosmos.
“No sé si los mundos están habitados, y como no lo sé, voy a verlo.”

A fun and hokey take on a moonshot. Verne ended up being right in some predictions about moon travel some 100 years prior to man landing on the moon. Just enjoy it for its allure and you'll have a fun time.
But, unfortunately I am neither theologian, nor chemist, nor naturalist, nor philosopher; therefore, in my absolute ignorance of the great laws which govern the universe, I confine myself to saying in reply, 'I do not know whether the worlds are inhabited or not; and since I do not know, I am going to see!'

Creo que no es mi tipo de lectura, se hace una lectura lenta.

Jules Verne's hyperfixation novel about the moon, also about America's hyperfixation with ballistics. Also Americans are a monolith, apparently. I recommend this for anyone who loves reading textbooks--including chapter after chapter of mind-numbing mathematical equations, listening to men talk very vehemently about things they are blatantly wrong about, and anyone who thinks shooting a cannonball to the moon is a good idea. Also, maybe anyone who thought the billionaires dying in that submarine was deserved. You may like this.

Some really great parts to this book especially the first chapter about the American gun club. I skimmed a good portion of the book because of the long outdated science speculation. Fascinating read
