Published the same year as Jules Verne's classic From the Earth to the Moon and Henri de Parville's An Inhabitant of the Planet Mars, Achille Eyraud's Voyage to Venus (1865) was the first novel to describe an interplanetary rocketpowered spaceship. Eyraud supports his design with an elaborate (but ultimately flawed) pseudoscientific argument and describes its cosmic voyage in a logical manner. Once on Venus, his protagonists discover a utopian society in which the sexes are equal and solarpowered robots toil in the fields. Voyage to Venus has often been mentioned in many histories of space travel and science fiction, although the difficulty of obtaining the original text until now meant that few have read it. This groundbreaking work is at last available in English in its first annotated translation by awardwinning author Brian Stableford.
