The First Men in the Moon - H. G. Wells - Book 6, Part 1

Title: The First Men in the Moon

Overview: The First Men in the Moon is a scientific romance by the English author H. G. Wells, originally serialized in The Strand Magazine from December 1900 to August 1901 and published in hardcover in 1901, who called it one of his "fantastic stories". The novel tells the story of a journey to the Moon undertaken by the two protagonists: a businessman narrator, Mr. Bedford; and an eccentric scientist, Mr. Cavor. Bedford and Cavor discover that the Moon is inhabited by a sophisticated extraterrestrial civilization of insect-like creatures they call "Selenites". The inspiration seems to come from the famous 1870 book by Jules Verne "From the Earth to the Moon", and the opera by Jacques Offenbach from 1875. In that opera, the word "selenites" is used for the first time for moon inhabitants.
