The First Men in the Moon

Two men, one invention, and a journey that changed how we imagine space.

The First Men in the Moon (1901), by H. G. Wells, is a groundbreaking science fiction adventure that takes readers beyond Earth and deep into the mysteries of the lunar world.

The story follows Mr. Bedford, a businessman in search of fortune, and Dr. Cavor, a brilliant but eccentric scientist whose invention makes space travel possible. Together, they embark on a daring expedition to the Moon—only to discover it is not barren, but alive with strange landscapes and an alien civilization that challenges everything they thought they knew.

Mixing scientific speculation with thrilling adventure, Wells captures both the wonder and the danger of exploration. His vision of space travel was astonishingly ahead of its time, influencing generations of writers, scientists, and dreamers.

More than just an adventure, The First Men in the Moon is a meditation on human ambition, greed, and the unknown forces we encounter when we reach beyond our world.
