After the American Civil War, Barbicane, president of the Baltimore City Artillery Club (a club for cannon inventors), proposed launching a cannonball to the moon to establish a connection between the earth and the moon. After learning the news, French adventurer Michel Ardan suggested building a hollow cannonball, and he was going to use this cannonball to explore the moon. Barbicane, Michel Ardan and Captain Nicholl overcame various difficulties and finally launched on December 1, 18XX. But they did not reach their destination.
