| Summary |
"Wunderwelten" by Friedrich Wilhelm Mader is a science fiction narrative written in the early 20th century. The story follows Lord Charles Flitmore and his companions, including Professor Heinrich Schultze and Captain Hugo von Münchhausen, as they embark on a fantastical journey into space aboard the "Weltschiff" Sannah, propelled by the groundbreaking concept of "Fliehkraft" (centrifugal force) that allows them to escape Earth's gravity. The book explores themes of adventure, discovery, and the challenges of space travel, making it an intriguing read for those fascinated by the realms of astronomy and imagination. The opening of "Wunderwelten" introduces readers to Professor Schultze, who receives an unexpected visit from Captain Münchhausen, leading to the discussion of Lord Flitmore's daring invitation to join him on an extraordinary voyage. Flitmore reveals that he has made a remarkable discovery that enables space travel, igniting enthusiasm among his friends. As they gather for the journey, they meet a diverse cast of characters, including Flitmore’s wife and their loyal servant. The narrative sets the stage for an adventurous expedition beyond Earth, as they prepare to explore the mysteries of the cosmos, with an emphasis on scientific curiosity and the thrill of exploration.
