Book excerpt: "A Trip to Venus" is a technological know-how fiction novella written by John Munro, a lesser-recognised British author who wrote during the overdue nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This painting is an early example of area travel and extraterrestrial exploration in technology fiction. The tale follows the adventures of the protagonist, Mr. George, who, in conjunction with a small group of scientists and adventurers, embarks on a high-quality adventure to Venus. Using a exceedingly advanced spacecraft, they travel thru space and in the end arrive on the earth Venus.

The Venusians possess superior technology, a rich cultural heritage, and a completely unique way of lifestyles. The tale explores the interactions and mutual fascination between the Earth traffic and the Venusians.

Book excerpt: The next evening promised well, and I kept my appointment, but unfortunately a slight haze gathered in the sky and prevented us from making further observations. While hoping in vain for it to clear away, Professor Gazen and I talked over the possibility of journeying to other worlds. The gist of our argument was afterwards published in a conversation, entitled "Can we reach the other planets?" which appeared in The Day after To-morrow. It ran as follows: I. (the writer). "Do you think we shall ever be able to leave the earth and travel through space to Mars or Venus, and the other members of the Solar System?"G. (Checking an impulse to smile and shaking his head), "Oh, no! Never."I. "Yet science is working miracles, or what would have been accounted miracles in ancient times."G. "No doubt, and hence people are apt to suppose that science can do everything; but after all Nature has set bounds to her achievements."I. "Still, we don't know what we can and what we cannot do until we try."G. "Not always; but in this case I think we know. The celestial bodies are evidently isolated in space, and the tenants of one cannot pass to another. We are confined to our own planet.
