Product Description

The Brick Moon (1869) is a lost classic of Victorian SF - the first tale to imagine the launch of an artificial satellite. As such, it is the perfect fictional pairing with Stars to Satellites and Longitude Punk’d, new exhibitions at the Royal Observatory.

This edition includes a new sequel - “Another Brick in the Moon” - from award-winning author Adam Roberts. The Brick Moon also comes complete with a new, critical introduction from Marek Kukula (Public Astronomer, Royal Observatory Greenwich) and Richard Dunn (Head of Science and Technology at Royal Museums Greenwich).

Cover by Gary Northfield, based on an aquatint from the collection of the National Maritime Museum.
