40961	What brings you around?
40961	What did you really do to make you so scared of going back? 40961 What difference does it make?"
40961	What do you know about where I''m better off? 40961 What do you mean,''Why not?''"
40961	What do you mean?
40961	What''s it like on Mars?
40961	What''s the trouble?
40961	Where to?
40961	Which loving relative won custody of the money?
40961	Why did n''t you buy a ticket on a passenger rocket, if you had such an urge to visit Luna?
40961	Why not?
40961	Why should they see me at all? 40961 Yeah?
40961	And how did you get that rig?"
40961	Ca n''t you take me?
40961	Did you miss anything?"
40961	Do you realize I''m eight-- I''m twenty- one and I never lived a happy day in my life?
40961	I did n''t get arrested this time, did I?
40961	I mean, what do you--?"
40961	Not pretty, but she might be in a few years._"What are you doing here?"
40961	Running from a family fight?
40961	She asked now,"What happens next?"
40961	Smack up grandpop''s helicopter, maybe, or flunk out of school?"
40961	So why ca n''t you take a chance with me to Mars?"
40961	That they still live mostly on hope, dreams, and regular rocket service?
40961	There was trouble behind this somewhere, he was willing to bet, or else why had she stowed away?
40961	What do you want a cop for?"
40961	What if there_ are_ four of you?"
40961	What''s the difference?
40961	What?"
40961	When do we go out and who''s the crew?"
40961	Where did you bury her?"
40961	Where the devil did you spend the last thirty- six hours?"
40961	Why?
40961	You did n''t see me bring back a shovel, did you?"
40961	You''re the next Mars pilot, according to the schedule, are n''t you?"
40961	_ But what the hell?_ he thought.
40961	_ That the whole population of the colony is only about four thousand?
40961	_ What does she expect me to tell her?_ Dudley wondered cynically.
27228	But tell, I pray thee, whence the gloomy spots Upon this body, which below on earth Give rise to talk of Cain in fabling quaint?
27228	Do you see yonder church?
27228	My eyes were dim, and so were Mr. Peggotty''s; but I repeated in a whisper,''With the tide?'' 27228 Trot, trot, trot; how do you enjoy that, my little man?
27228	What are you relating to me now?
27228	What signs of bad weather are there which sometimes you notice when storms are coming on? 27228 Who is she that looketh forth, fair as the moon?"
27228	Why does the dog waggle his tail?
27228	''Hev I seed her out o''doors afore?''
27228	''Wherefore dost thou depart from the sun, Wandering by night alone, Courting the morning star?''"
27228	4"Who''ll Smoak with the Man in the Moon?"
27228	And now some inquisitive individual may be impatient to interrupt our eloquence with the question,"What are you going to make of the man in the moon?"
27228	As these two desiderata seem indispensable to lunar inhabitation, we may chiefly consider the question, Do these conditions exist?
27228	Because what?"
27228	Besides, is the moon''s influence in disease an admitted fact?
27228	But some sceptic may assail us with a note of interrogation, saying,"Is there a man in the moon?"
27228	But who ever heard of the_ lunar_ rays as beneficial?
27228	For, as Pope puts it,--"Who shall decide, when doctors disagree, And soundest casuists doubt, like you and me?"
27228	Hast thou not dropp''d from heaven?
27228	Have not we all frequently affirmed that we knew no more about certain inscrutable matters than the man in the moon?
27228	He had wandered long, when a_ hare_ accosted him:''Can not I help thee?
27228	If he doth so, why should not you Drink until the sky looks blew?"
27228	Indeed, what more have amateurs that they can do?
27228	Is n''t that nice?"
27228	Looking up to it, she said,''Why can not you come down and let my child have a bit of you?''
27228	The Fabricator of terrestrial organizations has limited himself to no one type or form, why then should man be the model of beings in distant worlds?
27228	The man stopped, and asked the faggot- bearer,''Do you know that this is Sunday on earth, when all must rest from their labours?''
27228	Then a voice came from the heavens, saying:--''Wouldst thou, thief, like Thy cheek to strike This fair key, scorching- red with heat?''
27228	Thomas Dekker, a British dramatist, wrote in 1630:"A starre?
27228	To the question,''Is the moon inhabited?''
27228	We know something of his residence, whenever he is at home: what do we know of the man?
27228	Well, my lord bishop, is not that how we die on earth?
27228	What beside sexuality suggested the thought of the Chevalier Marini?
27228	What good would that do you, then?"
27228	What?
27228	Where did we get these ideas?
27228	Which of the twain is its true gender?
27228	Who can fail to discern slight touches of the same hand which we see displayed in other designs?
27228	Who can reflect upon this dream of human childhood, and not recall some dreams of later years?
27228	Who can tell what the last fifteen years of this eventful century may develop in the same direction?
27228	Who shall prescribe to science her boundaries, or restrain the active and insatiable curiosity of man within the circle of his present acquirements?
27228	Why so?
27228	[ 169] And now what does Confucianism say of moon- worship?
27228	[ 24] This may be rendered,"Do you not know what the people call the rustic in the moon who carries the thorns?
27228	[ 354] In Dekker''s_ Match Me in London_, Act i., the King says,"My Lord, doe you see this change in the moone?
27228	[ 50] What more needs to be said?
27228	[ 53] We are here told how the author,"making himself a kite of ye hight(?)
27228	[ 6] Several astronomers assert the absence of water in the moon; if this be the case, what is the poor man to drink?
27228	_ The Man in the Moon_, London, 1827(?).
27228	why came he down From his peaceful realm on high; Where sorrowful moan is all unknown, And nothing is born to die?
61242	All right? 61242 Base Gagarin?
61242	But when do you think you''re going to get the lights fixed?
61242	Cooler?
61242	Do n''t we look silly?
61242	Do you think he did that deliberately?
61242	Everyone got enough air?
61242	For a moment there, I thought...."What?
61242	Got the inventory sheet, Les?
61242	Help?
61242	Help?
61242	Hey, Les, how''s it look?
61242	How are we going to know when it''s over?
61242	How do they possibly think--?
61242	How does this stuff work?
61242	How''re the other ones?
61242	How''s that?
61242	How''s that?
61242	Huh?
61242	Is everything all right?
61242	Larry, where''s the inventory?
61242	Larry,Major Winship said,"why do n''t you get Earth?"
61242	Les, have you found it?
61242	Now what, Skip? 61242 Okay?"
61242	Other one? 61242 Skip--_what''s wrong?_""The second little dome is down.
61242	So you want to be a civilian?
61242	Static?
61242	Still hot?
61242	Think it''s safe, yet?
61242	Think you can make it, Charlie?
61242	This okay?
61242	Want to bet Finogenov has n''t got a bushel of them?
61242	What are we going to do with him? 61242 What brought this on?"
61242	What is_ that_?
61242	What''d they say?
61242	What''s wrong?
61242	What''s wrong?
61242	What-- what-- what?
61242	What?
61242	When?
61242	Who was supposed to check?
61242	Why did n''t you just borrow a cupful?
61242	Will you please request the general to keep us informed on the progress of the countdown?
61242	With sandpaper?
61242	With what?
61242	Yes?
61242	You got any concentrate? 61242 You still okay, Charlie?"
61242	You sure?
61242	Any damage, Major?"
61242	Are you all right?"
61242	At length, Major Winship said reflectively,"Why do you suppose they would try to calk it from the outside?"
61242	Base Gagarin?"
61242	Charlie, you still okay?"
61242	Even if they did n''t, they sure got the jump on us again, did n''t they?
61242	He said,"Now that makes a weird kind of sense, does n''t it?"
61242	He told me to take a little scale--""A little scale?"
61242	Help?"
61242	How''s it feel, Charlie?"
61242	How''s the other little dome?"
61242	I told you what he told me?"
61242	Is the leak repaired?"
61242	Is there anything at all we can do?"
61242	Lawler said,"''How are we going to mix it?''
61242	Leak?
61242	Skip, can you get the calking compound?"
61242	That''s the thing that gripes me, know what I mean?
61242	What''ll we do?
61242	When-- boom?"
61242	Where''s the markers?"
61242	Wilkins''s lips were desperately forming the word"Leak?"
61242	You A Okay?"
61242	You did n''t feel it?"
61242	You do n''t suppose they planned this all along?
61242	You riding okay, Charlie?"
61242	You want it?"
61242	You?"
62260	Are you mad? 62260 But then-- what?"
62260	Enough?
62260	H- uh? 62260 How about my bag--?"
62260	How''s that? 62260 Huh?
62260	Hummm?
62260	I-- er-- I beg your pardon, Isobar?
62260	It disturbs the peace o''the dingfounded, dumblasted Dome staff, does it? 62260 Jinky- wallopers, I won''t-- Huh?
62260	Notified of_ what_?
62260	Oh, cut jets, will you?
62260	Oh, it''s_ you_? 62260 Oh, no?
62260	Oh-- the pipes?
62260	Report ready, Jones?
62260	So I ca n''t play you, huh?
62260	Sweet snakes of Saturn, Jonesy, what''s the trouble? 62260 W- where,"faltered Isobar feebly,"is_ what_?"
62260	Want to play peekaboo while the contact''s open, eh? 62260 Well, hell, are n''t we all?
62260	Well, it''s Roberts and Brown--"What about''em?
62260	Well,he said,"one man''s fish-- hey, Jonesy?
62260	What? 62260 Yeah?
62260	You mean you have n''t been notified?
62260	You telecast a message to the Dome? 62260 ***** Afterward, Isobar Jones said weakly,But-- dead?
62260	Adventure?
62260	And the shooting?
62260	And what did you plan to do there?"
62260	And why, for Pete''s sake, the bagpipes?"
62260	And with_ what_, pray, Jones?"
62260	Bugs in your britches?"
62260	But what are_ you_ doing out here, Isobar?
62260	But, why--?"
62260	But-- how come you always want to take a squint at Earth when the circuit''s open, Jonesy?
62260	Can you hear me, Luna?
62260	Can you hear--?"
62260	Can you twist your mike around so it''s pointing out a window?"
62260	Did n''t you hear our telecast?
62260	Excitement?
62260	Four- alarm Riley, the cosmic comedian-- didn''t you know?
62260	Fresh air?
62260	Funny man Riley?"
62260	Funny man, eh?
62260	Have you read General Order 17?"
62260	His world- sickness is like a crying hunger-- By the way, where is he now?"
62260	Homesick?"
62260	How about the Grannies?"
62260	How comes with the report?"
62260	Instructor in_ what_?"
62260	Instructor?
62260	Isobar said,"H- huh?
62260	Jones?"
62260	Look, do me a favor, chum?
62260	Maybe I ought to call the office, maybe?"
62260	Not even allowed to-- Yeah?"
62260	Quick, man-- where is it?
62260	See that grilled duct over there?
62260	See that window?
62260	See that?
62260	Sometimes I get so mad I''d like to--""To,"interrupted a crisp voice,"what?"
62260	Such labor as caused Patrolmen Brown and Roberts to go, for example--""Any word from them yet, sir?"
62260	Suicide... mad acts of valor... deeds of cunning or knavery....""You mean,"demanded Sparks anxiously,"Isobar ai n''t got all his buttons?"
62260	Sunlight?
62260	The answer that caused the bagpipes to slip from Isobar''s fingers as Isobar Jones passed out in a dead faint:"After you?
62260	The romance he had been led to expect when he signed on for frontier service?
62260	Then you did n''t pick up our call?
62260	Then you picked up our cry for help?
62260	Those Grannies?
62260	W- hat do you mean, Commander?"
62260	Was it the sound- waves that killed them?"
62260	Were n''t you told that I would take your place here while you reported to G.H.Q.?"
62260	What''s''at?
62260	What?"
62260	Where are_ you_ going?"
62260	Will you do it?"
62260	You trying to scare them off?
61674	A rebellion, O Queen? 61674 A rocket ship?"
61674	A''bum''?
61674	All the cameras set?
61674	Any other news?
61674	Any signals from the Peak?
61674	Are they dead?
61674	Artana agreed?
61674	B- ray? 61674 Burned away, huh?
61674	Clouds?
61674	Did they say,asked Ross,"how Horta plans to make war?
61674	Did you ever see such a mess?
61674	Did you get that, Harry? 61674 Do we go on?"
61674	Everything settled?
61674	Fight what?
61674	Go on?
61674	Going to skirt the cavern?
61674	Gone? 61674 Has Horta been up to anything in the ray business?"
61674	Have you heard of trouble on the Earth?
61674	Hear that?
61674	Horta?
61674	How about ray- guns now?
61674	How about the blinkers from the other ships?
61674	How are the stars behaving, Harry?
61674	I wonder if it might not even mean--"Whatever happened to Number Eight?
61674	If there should be fighting--"Fighting?
61674	If you do, why ca n''t you say something?
61674	It''s a Regency, is n''t it?
61674	King Magnus was killed, perhaps not by Horta''s orders-- but who else would have plotted it? 61674 Magnus-- killed?
61674	New Kingdom?
61674	Now where?
61674	On the Moon? 61674 Or-- well, trouble in the sky?"
61674	Queen Boada-- and the Princess Illeria?
61674	Quite a scare, was n''t it?
61674	Shot away?
61674	So it is n''t going to happen?
61674	Sure you speak the Earth tongue?
61674	That''s all, Jorgens?
61674	The Earth- girls, they do not speak so to men?
61674	The Great Cavern, eh? 61674 The reservoirs are full?"
61674	Think so?
61674	Want to answer, Chief?
61674	Well?
61674	Well?
61674	What else?
61674	What good would they do?
61674	What happened?
61674	What''ll you do with the men of the Peaks?
61674	What''s going on?
61674	What''s our speed?
61674	What''s the play?
61674	Where are we?
61674	Where do you suppose we could get some guns?
61674	Where does that leave us?
61674	Where''s your sporting blood?
61674	Who takes over?
61674	Why do you say that?
61674	Wiped out?
61674	Would n''t it be better to stand off and wait for more news?
61674	You did n''t get a knock on the head, did you?
61674	You do n''t mean--"Why not?
61674	You do n''t suppose he''s a pal in disguise?
61674	You do not like me?
61674	You mean that you would fly over the Caverns?
61674	You mean, Artana sent this to decoy us in to Four and smash us?
61674	You mean-- Illeria?
61674	You mean-- the way the red stars go dim when we drain them of the red rays that power our ships and inter- planet communications?
61674	You really think that?
61674	You will not go? 61674 You would have me accompany you?"
61674	Your fleet?
61674	*****"Blue rays, then?"
61674	A jigger who might sell us out to the first Horta sentry?"
61674	And Seven?
61674	But he pushed her aside, and cried out to the helmsman,"How does she fly?"
61674	But how?
61674	But there shall be no fighting?"
61674	But what can I do?"
61674	But you, my friends?
61674	Can you-- is there anything I can tell the men about-- Number Eight?"
61674	Do you remember what Trowbridge''s message said?"
61674	Do you suppose they''ve gone to work somehow on the blue stars?"
61674	Had she resented his long open stare?
61674	Have you checked on any other blue stars?"
61674	He''s raising hell on the Moon, Commander?"
61674	How can I receive you, when my people are embroiled in civil war-- for that is what it is?"
61674	How could we be sure of some other guide?
61674	How did this door open?"
61674	How?
61674	Is that what you heard?"
61674	Perhaps that strange Purple Death of the Trowbridge message?
61674	Remember the Princess?
61674	Say, Bruce, did you hear the old girl?"
61674	Shall I cut speed if they do n''t signal?"
61674	Six?
61674	Surely that is occasion enough?"
61674	Then why not loose the waters in the reservoirs, and flood the caverns?"
61674	Think these pop- guns will punch a hole in it?"
61674	War- Lords of the Moon By LINTON DAVIES Bruce Ross, on the Earth- Moon run, asked a simple question,"How are the stars behaving, Harry?"
61674	Was history to repeat itself-- in reverse, with Horta''s Moon machines raking the Earth with death?
61674	Was that blow the last sign of his rear guard?
61674	What are you doing on this tour?"
61674	What if Horta were to make a sudden attack?
61674	What''s that?"
61674	What''s the trouble?
61674	Where was Six?
61674	Where''s Jorgens?"
61674	Where?"
61674	With what weapons?"
61674	You remember him?"
46547	And why not?
46547	But why all these Circumstances,replied I,"in your way of Fighting?
46547	But you''ll say, how could Hazard congregate into one place all the Figures that are necessary for the production of that Oak? 46547 For suppose him to be an Animal without Reason, would it be rational in you to Condemn him for offending against it?
46547	Good now,replied I to him,"do you comprehend the Nothing that is beyond it?
46547	How, a War,said I interrupting her,"have the Princes of this World, then, any quarrels amongst themselves, as those of ours have?
46547	How,cried all the Company,"did not you know by that, that they shewed you what it was a Clock?"
46547	How,said I,"will the Air become as solid as the Earth, to bear your steps?
46547	I well perceive you''ll put the question to me, Why Water compressed in a Vessel by the Frost should break it, if it be not to hinder a Vacuity? 46547 Not to insist on a long Deduction of Arguments to prove this, tell me in good earnest, How a Pike, a Sword or a Dagger wounds us?
46547	Pray tell me, when I taste a Fruit, is it not because the Heat of my Mouth melts it? 46547 Well, and because it can not complain, may we therefore justly do it all the Wrong which it can not hinder?
46547	What, do you take a Burial for a precious thing then,replyed that Man?
46547	Why then,replied she,"do they not chuse Impartial and Unsuspected Arbitrators to compose their Differences?
46547	You are in_ France_answered they:"But what Devil hath put you into that Dress?
46547	(* search: start p. 60:"the Earth, I threw out my Bowl...") The passages lacking were cut out then but by whom?
46547	And besides, what great Probability have you to imagine, that the Sun is immoveable, when we see it go?
46547	And he asking me, why?
46547	And how comes it that we know you not?
46547	And the_ Irish_-men, than_ Spaniards_?
46547	And what appearance is there, that the Earth turns with so great Rapidity, when we feel it firm under our Feet?"
46547	And why have you divided your Brandy into so many Bottles?"
46547	And why should not I, then, expect as favourable a Success?"
46547	Are you going to carry the News of it to the Governor?
46547	But if you ask me, How these Worlds have been made, seeing Holy Scripture speaks only of one that God made?
46547	But if you still demand of me, how I come to know that Cabbage and Coleworts conceive such pretty Thoughts?
46547	But then all cried,"Do n''t you see here Earth, Rivers, Seas?
46547	But you know not,"added he,"what a pleasant Quarrel I have just now had with our Fathers, upon your account?
46547	Did your Father consult your Will and Pleasure, when he Embraced your Mother?
46547	Do you think it strange, that the first Men of your World lived so many Ages without the least Knowledge of Physick?
46547	Does there a Sponge go out of my Ears, that drinks up that Musick, and brings it back with it again?
46547	Doth not Itching make good what I say?
46547	For grant he hath escaped, what then?
46547	For how could these great Fires subsist without some matter, that served them for Fewel?
46547	Have not I as much Boldness as he?
46547	He asked my Guide if I would have a dozen of Larks, because_ Baboons_( one of which he took me to be,) loved to feed on them?
46547	He then intreated me to tell him, how I durst be so bold as to Scale the Moon with the Machine I told him of?
46547	How can you constrain him not to have Visions, as well as you?
46547	How long Men had gone naked in_ France_?
46547	How will you then, most Venerable Assembly, justifie your selves for being so concerned at the Caprices of that little Animal?
46547	How, must it be said, because the Sun measures our Days and Years, that it hath only been made to keep us from running our Heads against the Walls?
46547	I ask you, why are Elephants bigger than we?
46547	I asked him how they lived?
46547	I asked him, but with a great deal of pain,( for I was quite choked) how far they reckoned from thence to_ Paris_?
46547	I asked him, if it was a Note for the Reckoning?
46547	I asked him, if they were Bodies as we are?
46547	I asked him, what probable Arguments he had, to confirm so new an Opinion?
46547	I expect you''ll ask me, why through a Reed, a Syringe or a Pump, Water is forced to ascend contrary to its inclination?
46547	I farther asked him, If these Verses would always serve, if one Transcribed them?
46547	If Art then be capable of inclining a Body to a perpetual Motion, why may we not believe that Nature can do it?
46547	If I find a Wretch bound Hand and Foot, may I lawfully kill him, because he can not defend himself?
46547	If you adore a Woman, is it not because of her Beauty?
46547	If you ask me, why are they bigger than other imperceptible Creatures?
46547	Is it because they are not as yet deprived of Sight, by the Death of all their Senses?
46547	Is it not enough, that both Armies are equal in the number of Men?"
46547	Is it not far more likely, that his Fancy, being excited by violent Desires, hath done its Duty and wrought the Cure?
46547	Is not she the common Mother of you both?
46547	Is not the whole World wrapt up in Nothing?
46547	Is the Fleet then arrived?
46547	Matthew Prior:"Can syllogisms set things right?
46547	My Spirit observed it, and having asked me, What was the reason that my Humor was so much altered?
46547	Nay, are you sure he hath not hindered you from Inheriting a Crown?
46547	Or does the Player beget in my Head another little Musician, with another little Lute, who has Orders like an Eccho to sing over to me the same Airs?
46547	So far was he gone on in his Discourse, when the young Lad, who had led out our Philosopher, led him in again;"What, Supped already?"
46547	They asked me, why I came so late?
46547	To say that it is incomprehensible, that there should be a Nothing in the World, that we are in part made up of Nothing: Why not, pray?
46547	Verses,"said I,"are your Inn- Keepers here curious of Rhime then?"
46547	When they were come within hearing, I asked them, Where I was?
46547	When you yield to the Stronger, is it not that he should be obliged to you for a Victory which you can not Dispute him?
46547	Why should you then continue your Cringes, when Old Age hath made her a Ghost, which only represents a hideous Picture of Death?
46547	You''ll ask me, How can it be, that I perceive at so great a distance a thing which I do not see?
46547	You''ll ask me, perhaps, when ever any Cabbage imparted those lofty Conceptions to us?
46547	[ 10] The incandescent electric light?
46547	[ 3] Is this an anticipation of the phonograph?
46547	[ Sidenote: The Soul of Plants]"For tell me, Is not that Cabbage you speak of, a Being existent in Nature, as well as you?
46547	[ Sidenote: Towns in the Moon] At these words, the Landlord''s Son called his Father, to know what it was a Clock?
46547	and why they fled from me in so great Consternation?
46547	answered I half angry:"Have you laid a wager you''ll jeer me all this Day?"
46547	must it needs be a Miracle?
46547	said he in_ French_,"do you[ not] know your Friend then?"
46547	what''s all that then?"
50713	A friend? 50713 A radio, flares, mirrors?"
50713	And now that you say it, do you know what that current is? 50713 Are there animals here without eye or light?"
50713	But surely there must be some way of calling their attention even sooner?
50713	But what happened when Von Borck returned here to get his space suit?
50713	But why did n''t you just stay here instead of going out?
50713	Can we send a message back to Earth then?
50713	Could you lead me there?
50713	Did you ever see one of those blasts?
50713	Did you get hit?
50713	Did you understand him?
50713	Do n''t you know,said the other,"this is that big top- secret experimental job they were working so fast on this week?
50713	Do you have a rocket on the surface?
50713	Do you have flares?
50713	Do you suppose Von Borck is following us?
50713	Have I been out long?
50713	Have you ever fired a rifle or a pistol, Robin?
50713	Here? 50713 How did you ever find this passage?"
50713	How did you spot that break in the wall we came through?
50713	How far do you think it will go?
50713	How far is White Sands from Las Cruces?
50713	Is there anything there we could use to signal the Earth with?
50713	No rocket? 50713 No visitors?"
50713	Only how do we get to the surface? 50713 Shall I untie this or shall we jump together?"
50713	Shall we wait for him to come back or shall we try to follow him?
50713	Suppose the Glassies see the light?
50713	The instruments in place?
50713	There are many bubble- places without light?
50713	This is the one they''re firing off tomorrow, is n''t it?
50713	Uh huh,said Robin,"and then how do we get back down here again?"
50713	Uh uh, so they say, but you notice where they moved our outfit, did n''t you? 50713 Well,"he asked Peter,"what do we do now?"
50713	What am I waiting for?
50713	What do we do now?
50713	What happened?
50713	What is it?
50713	What is it?
50713	What now?
50713	What now?
50713	What station?
50713	What''s the source of the electricity?
50713	What''s the trouble, fellow?
50713	What?
50713	Where did you get your name? 50713 Where''d he go?"
50713	Who are you?
50713	Who was in charge of them?
50713	Wo n''t they kill you if you go back?
50713	Yes, we''re lucky to be alive, but how will we ever get back to the surface now? 50713 Yes,"said Peter,"but how?"
50713	Actually what could they do to him?
50713	Again, escape though he might, could he save Korree too?
50713	All set?"
50713	And I wonder what metal this is?
50713	And how do you spell your last name?"
50713	And how was it he was a prisoner?
50713	And what are they doing there?"
50713	Are you hit?"
50713	But could he risk it?
50713	But escape to what?
50713	But how to combine atomic explosions with controlled rocket fire?
50713	But maybe you know more about our family?"
50713	But now-- were these unknowns dangerous to him?
50713	But what about water?
50713	But what time was it now?
50713	But where did he come from?
50713	But who knows?"
50713	Could he survive?
50713	Could it be that he was already in outer space, heading for the void, never to return to Earth?
50713	Could it be that the inventors had miscalculated?
50713	Did you say they were firing it at six?"
50713	Do you think you could get back to your rocket on the surface?"
50713	Feel like some hot food?
50713	Finally he reached out and tapped the Glassie and whispered,"What are those lights?"
50713	Had he suddenly become weak?
50713	Had they seen his flashlight?
50713	Had they taken the wrong turn and come to a dead end?
50713	He thought he was falling, but was it not just as likely that instead he was simply beyond gravity?
50713	He was the first-- but who would ever know?
50713	How about you?
50713	How could he tell how long he had been asleep, how long unconscious?
50713	How did he get here?
50713	How did you say you got here?"
50713	How do we know Von went down here?
50713	How far?
50713	How fast was he traveling?
50713	How had his companion vanished?
50713	How long had he been at this?
50713	How long had he slept?
50713	How was it the air was remaining fresh now, though it had gone stale while he was hiding?
50713	How would you blow it up in the first place?
50713	I wonder how cold it will get in this place?"
50713	I wonder if this is really writing or just a design?
50713	If he delayed, doled it to himself in small bits, it could only prolong the agony awhile, but would not the result still be the same?
50713	If there were air, was it enough to sustain him?
50713	In this tunnel?"
50713	Is food here?"
50713	Is there someone here who speaks English?"
50713	Is this stuff good to eat?"
50713	Korree said quietly,"Another prisoner or a listener?"
50713	Maybe they hire civilian workers?
50713	Might it not be poisonous or utterly lacking in oxygen?
50713	On the back it read:_ Ready for loading._"I better put this back where it fell from,"he said, adding,"but which side is correct?
50713	One of your people?
50713	Or-- maybe if you enlist there they''ll let you serve there?
50713	Perhaps Korree was in trouble there?
50713	Real Earth food?"
50713	Robin suddenly asked,"How did you learn to speak English so well?"
50713	Robin was on his way to the rockets, to the famous White Sands Proving Grounds... or was he?
50713	Save it for what?
50713	Shall we set them off?"
50713	Should he eat it now or save it?
50713	Should we plant the Red flag there, or you the Stars and Stripes?
50713	So... what would really happen when his rocket hit the Moon?
50713	Such a chunk brought back to Earth might be worth an emperor''s ransom-- but who could think of such values here?
50713	Suppose they caught him there, would he get off as lightly as he might at White Sands?
50713	Surely they must have been supplied with some sort of food for their flight?
50713	The question was, where could he escape to?
50713	The unseen speaker spoke again:"Who is that?
50713	Trackers on the job?"
50713	Was it a few feet or a fraction of an inch?
50713	Was it a rocket?
50713	Was it after all but a daydream that he was pursuing?
50713	Was it mist he was passing through?
50713	Was not this then such a crossroads?
50713	Was the cold reality to prove too indifferent to the hopes of just an ordinary young fellow?
50713	Was there air outside, wherever it was that he found himself?
50713	Was this a mistake he would regret?
50713	Water-- under the Moon?
50713	Were they coming to investigate?
50713	What could he do?
50713	What did they have of yours?"
50713	What do you say, shall we spend this next week playing Columbus, looking for more bubble worlds to conquer?"
50713	What even if he went to jail?
50713	What had brought him in?
50713	What next?
50713	What then if he spent some bad hours under arrest?
50713	What was going on here?
50713	What was the Red Sands Station anyway?
50713	What was the secret?
50713	What was this?
50713	When Robin had finished, he asked,"Now I want to know about you?
50713	When this pack was used up, how could he make fire?
50713	Where are you?"
50713	Where was Red Sands?
50713	Which way did you come?"
50713	White Sands or Red?
50713	White Sands or Red?_ From Missouri where the bus ride had ended, the time had passed with difficulty.
50713	Why had he never heard of it?
50713	Why not sign up and try for it?"
50713	Why were they standing, he thought, why did n''t they go on in, punch their cards?
50713	Would White Sands prove a disappointment?
50713	_ Red_ Sands?
43235	Accident?
43235	Adam,the Colonel hesitated a long moment,"does the name Pickering mean anything to you?"
43235	Again?
43235	Ah, yes, how could I have forgotten?
43235	And the second possibility?
43235	And the second?
43235	And you?
43235	And...?
43235	Another one?
43235	Any idea what kind?
43235	Any reason you ca n''t help?
43235	Any sign of a drone with it?
43235	But about Nagel...?
43235	Can I tell him that?
43235	Can you locate it?
43235	Can you make it that fast?
43235	Certainly, but about Gordon Nagel...?
43235	Commander...?
43235	Crag?
43235	Do you know a better way?
43235	Does it tell us how to get there, too?
43235	Feel better?
43235	For what?
43235	For what?
43235	How about climbing into your suits so we can get out of this can?
43235	How about him?
43235	How about the communicator?
43235	How did we lose oxygen, Gordon?
43235	How did you like the dancing girls in Gorik''s, over by the shore?
43235	How far was Prochaska ahead of you?
43235	How long do you figure it''ll take?
43235	How long will it take to make repairs?
43235	How we doing?
43235	How will loss of Able affect that?
43235	How will the U.N. know that?
43235	How you doing, Skipper?
43235	How you doing, skipper?
43235	How''d you ever locate me?
43235	How''s that for a stack of hogwash?
43235	How... how did it get here?
43235	How?
43235	I''ve got it?
43235	Identity?
43235	Is that good?
43235	Is there any possibility of telemetering her all the way in?
43235	It could n''t be their atom- powered job?
43235	Judging from what you''ve seen of Bandit, how long would it take to make it livable as crew quarters?
43235	Ken Pickering who--"What have you heard?
43235	Larkwell...?
43235	Larkwell? 43235 Larkwell?"
43235	Larkwell?
43235	Larkwell?
43235	Last night?
43235	Like a mineral description of the terrain?
43235	Logical to attempt to murder men?
43235	Meaning...?
43235	Meaning?
43235	Meteorite?
43235	Mind explaining?
43235	More visitors?
43235	No traitor?
43235	No? 43235 No?"
43235	No?
43235	No?
43235	Now what?
43235	Now?
43235	Now?
43235	Oh?
43235	On an Iron Curtain rocket?
43235	Or should I say the moon?
43235	Oxygen?
43235	Pressure suits?
43235	Ready on winch one?
43235	Ready on winch two?
43235	Ready, now?
43235	Richter...?
43235	Richter?
43235	Satelloid?
43235	See anything?
43235	See anything?
43235	Skipper, are you checking your oxygen?
43235	So...?
43235	Sort of startling, is n''t it?
43235	Suppose there are more breaks?
43235	Supposing it''s pinhole size? 43235 The drone?"
43235	The psychiatrists?
43235	Then?
43235	There''s one thing he forgot...."What?
43235	Think we might get inside?
43235	Think we ought to contact Alpine?
43235	Was anyone up during your watch? 43235 What about Temple?"
43235	What about winding up this job first? 43235 What are we claiming?"
43235	What do the computers say?
43235	What do you expect to gain?
43235	What do you think Pickering was up there for?
43235	What do you think?
43235	What do you think?
43235	What does Alpine say?
43235	What happened?
43235	What now?
43235	What now?
43235	What would the loss of Able mean?
43235	What''s on your mind?
43235	What''s the matter, Max, no pioneer spirit?
43235	What''s the maximum deadline?
43235	What''s up?
43235	What''s up?
43235	What''s wrong? 43235 What?"
43235	What?
43235	What?
43235	When do we take over?
43235	Where are we going to get the oxygen to keep this bird alive?
43235	Where are you?
43235	Where were you when this happened?
43235	Where were you, Gordon?
43235	Where''s Larkwell?
43235	Where?
43235	Why ca n''t we?
43235	Why did n''t he attempt to solicit your aid?
43235	Why did you come, Commander?
43235	Why did you come... to the moon, Gordon?
43235	Why does n''t he answer?
43235	Why not?
43235	Why? 43235 Why?
43235	Why?
43235	Why?
43235	Why?
43235	Would you expect me to?
43235	Yeah?
43235	You all right?
43235	You did that?
43235	You mean the man in the moon?
43235	You mean we''re going to lug that bastard back to the Aztec?
43235	You mean...?
43235	*****"Gordon Nagel, the young man on the moon flight?
43235	An agent who could n''t trust a soldier of his own country, even when the chips were down?
43235	And the silver job at Burning Sands?"
43235	And what was he doing about it?
43235	Any volunteers?"
43235	Are you receiving?
43235	Besides, what was his gripe?
43235	But supposing the man were a consummate actor, his fear a mask to conceal his purpose?
43235	But why the drone?
43235	CHAPTER 10"Gordon Nagel?"
43235	Colonel Gotch would be there, puffing on his pipe, his face expressionless, watching the work of many years come to... what?
43235	Could Nagel hold out?
43235	Could a man die of sheer exhaustion?
43235	Could they possibly adapt their bodies to such an environment?
43235	Damn, would n''t the man stop beating around the bush?
43235	Did anyone go to the commode?"
43235	Did it take more guts to do that than to double for a man slated to be murdered?
43235	Do you follow me?"
43235	Enemy?
43235	Good Lord, did every move have to be cloak and dagger?
43235	Got that?"
43235	Had Larkwell been hit by a meteorite?
43235	Had Larkwell-- or was it Malin?--survived the rock storm?
43235	Had any progress been made toward salvaging the cargo of Drone Baker?
43235	Had n''t we better record that and transmit it to Alpine?"
43235	Have you a better plan?"
43235	He asked Larkwell:"What do you think?"
43235	He spoke again:"So, you''re our saboteur?"
43235	He spoke casually, aware he might be stepping on Richter''s toes:"There''s one thing I do n''t understand....""What?"
43235	His plans?
43235	How does the meteorite problem look?"
43235	How far south?
43235	How much could they take?
43235	How was the airlock in the rill progressing?
43235	How''s everything going?"
43235	How?
43235	I just caught up to him....""What''s wrong with him?"
43235	I''m a grown boy, remember?"
43235	If he lived?
43235	If we survive this... what next?
43235	It might not be so great....""How?"
43235	It was designed to protect them from the dangers of meteorite dust, but would it withstand the rain of hell to come when the warhead struck?
43235	Larkwell spoke up,"How about you?"
43235	Larkwell-- where was Larkwell?
43235	Maybe you can guess the name we''ve selected for it?"
43235	Minutes or hours?
43235	No Bandit?
43235	Now that Drone Able had been lost--"Golly, what''ll we do with all the room?"
43235	Okay?"
43235	Or could they?_ He debated the question, then quickly briefed Prochaska and cut him in on the com circuit.
43235	Or would he?
43235	Part of, shall we say, a well planned tactic?
43235	Perhaps anti- sub patrol, eh?"
43235	Red Dog?
43235	Remember the Blue Door episode?
43235	Remember?"
43235	Richter said quietly:"Which way?"
43235	Richter?
43235	So why not Nagel?
43235	South of Alphons?
43235	Specifically, how much could_ he_ take?
43235	The bird colonel heckling you?"
43235	The saboteur?
43235	Then what?
43235	Too big for a weld?
43235	Too fast?
43235	Trust me?
43235	Wait, what else had he said?
43235	Waiting for what?
43235	Was he planning, biding his time, preparing to strike?
43235	Was there a safety officer down there with a finger on a button... prepared to destroy the Aztec if it wavered in flight?
43235	We need a silver lining once in a while, eh?"
43235	We''d have to haul one helluva lot of gear across that damned desert--""How long?"
43235	What fires burned behind his placid countenance?
43235	What gives?"
43235	What more could go wrong?
43235	What next?
43235	What of the cold of night?
43235	What was the extent of the radioactive field?
43235	What were his thoughts?
43235	What were the dimensions of Red Dog?
43235	What were you planning for tonight, your last night on earth?"
43235	What would Gotch do?
43235	When?
43235	Where to and what next?
43235	Where was the most sensitive spot?
43235	Where was the third man?
43235	Which one?
43235	Which one?
43235	Who dared come here?
43235	Who was the stalker and who was the stalked?
43235	Who was the traitor?
43235	Who?
43235	Who?
43235	Why not?
43235	Why not?
43235	Would he have had the courage to drive the satelloid into the warhead?
43235	Would he please describe the rocket launcher the enemy had used to destroy the Aztec?
43235	Would that be enough?
43235	Would the pursued man be waiting... covering the trail behind him?
43235	Would they be able to take it?
43235	Yet, what could either accomplish by striking now?
43235	You think not?"
43235	_ Could n''t control?
43235	_ Why had Gotch selected him?_ The Aztec, a silver needle plunging through space followed by her drones, all in his tender care.
43235	why?"
7473	A dead man?
7473	A ghost?
7473	Ah, is that so?
7473	Ah, then you know this old shack?
7473	Ai n''t yo''goin''t''hab some supper?
7473	All ready?
7473	Am I? 7473 Am dere two Marks?
7473	An inhabitant of the moon?
7473	An''did yo''all really discober dem sparklers?
7473	And Reonaris is diamonds, is n''t it?
7473	And could we go farther than to the moon if we wanted to?
7473	And does n''t it tell about them finding a field of Reonaris?
7473	And if it does work, when can we start?
7473	And when do you think we will arrive?
7473	And will the inspection have to be made now?
7473	And will these save our lives?
7473	And, speaking of eating, what''s the matter with having some lunch? 7473 Are n''t we going to look for those diamonds?"
7473	Are we all ready?
7473	Are we going to move any faster than this?
7473	Are we really going to be walking around the moon inside of thirty minutes?
7473	Are you all ready?
7473	Are you badly hurt? 7473 Are you engaged at anything in particular?"
7473	Are you expecting your girl to come along and bid you good- by, Mark?
7473	Are you going far?
7473	Are you going out, Wash?
7473	Are you going to imprison me over night?
7473	Are you going to try to go around it, and land on the side turned away from us?
7473	Are you hurt?
7473	Are you inside?
7473	Are you sure, Andy?
7473	But am I in time?
7473	But ca n''t we do something?
7473	But how are you going to get it?
7473	But how can I do it?
7473	But what could be their object?
7473	But what did we do?
7473	But what happened to you? 7473 But what have I done to you?"
7473	But what is your purpose?
7473	But what right have you to keep me here?
7473	But who could he have been?
7473	But who? 7473 But why do n''t you want me to go with them?"
7473	But why do you take such an interest in me? 7473 But why do you want to be revenged on us?"
7473	But why have you made me a prisoner?
7473	But why?
7473	But-- water?
7473	Ca n''t breathe on it?
7473	Ca n''t we start some other motor?
7473	Ca n''t you pull the lever over faster?
7473	Ca n''t you tell us more about what happened?
7473	Can it be done?
7473	Can it be the result of the damage which that lunatic did?
7473	Can we get back to the projectile without it?
7473	Can you see a place to land?
7473	Can you show us the place?
7473	Could anything cause us to swerve to one side?
7473	Could it have been him?
7473	Den how could I see one?
7473	Diamonds on the moon?
7473	Did I promise to wait for you at some barn?
7473	Did n''t I done tole yo''dat I got t''feed my rooster? 7473 Did you find him?"
7473	Did you lose some of your teeth, the reason your voice sounds so funny?
7473	Did you see that?
7473	Do n''t you remember how, in the trip to Mars, we nearly collided with the comet? 7473 Do n''t you think we will?"
7473	Do n''t you want supper?
7473	Do n''t you want to go out, and walk around the moon, and pick up diamonds?
7473	Do they see us?
7473	Do with you? 7473 Do you mean what did I say?"
7473	Do you mean where have I been while supper was getting ready?
7473	Do you mean you''re glad to see us, Wash?
7473	Do you mean, were we talking about diamonds?
7473	Do you think it will work?
7473	Do you think it would be dangerous to venture outside the projectile?
7473	Do you think they can hear that?
7473	Do you think we''ll find him there?
7473	Do-- do you really think we saw it-- saw the_ Annihilator_, Mark?
7473	Does n''t the moon turn around?
7473	Farther? 7473 Find anything wrong?"
7473	Find food here?
7473	Finish what?
7473	Give up? 7473 Give up?"
7473	Good to eat?
7473	Great; is n''t it?
7473	Hab-- hab we hit it yet?
7473	Had n''t you better notify the police?
7473	Has yo''got one ob dem torch- light processions t''spare?
7473	Have you any enemies that you know of, Mark?
7473	Have you met with an accident? 7473 Here, what''s the trouble?"
7473	How about you, Professor Henderson? 7473 How are you going to do it?"
7473	How can there be water here?
7473	How can we get it?
7473	How can we?
7473	How did it happen?
7473	How did the rooster get in here?
7473	How did you avoid it?
7473	How did you happen to go down there?
7473	How do you know it is to start to- morrow morning?
7473	How do you think it happened, Professor Henderson?
7473	How fast do you think it ought to send us along?
7473	How long will the supply of chemical last?
7473	How much are we making now, Mark?
7473	How soon before we will be ready to start?
7473	How would it be if I went on a little nearer to the Preakness house?
7473	How''s that?
7473	How?
7473	I mean could we go to Mars if we wanted to?
7473	I wonder if Washington could have meddled with it?
7473	I wonder if anything could have happened to him? 7473 I wonder if we can steer clear of it?"
7473	I wonder if we''ll ever see them again?
7473	I wonder if we''re going right?
7473	I wonder if you would do me a favor?
7473	I wonder what it can be?
7473	I wonder what we''ll do when we get to the moon?
7473	I wonder who he can be, anyhow? 7473 I''m not; but what''s the use of believing anything so wild and weird as that?
7473	In a circle?
7473	Is it possible? 7473 Is it really roast beef?"
7473	Is the machine all right now?
7473	Is this a joke, boys?
7473	Live around here?
7473	Look here; do you see that?
7473	Looking toward our house?
7473	Mark must be here, yet why does n''t he answer me? 7473 Matter?
7473	Matter? 7473 Maybe; but why do n''t you ask Andy Sudds or Washington White to give their opinion?"
7473	Me live here?
7473	Need any help, officer?
7473	No more live stock loose, is there, Jack?
7473	No name signed?
7473	No-- why should I?
7473	No; I mean where did the accident occur?
7473	No; do you?
7473	No; what''s the use?
7473	Oh, Mark, ca n''t you save me?
7473	Oh, is it broken? 7473 Oh, is that it?"
7473	Oh, only a theory; eh?
7473	Oh, well, den, why did n''t yo''say so fust, dat it was only a theory? 7473 Oh, why did I ever try to learn this man''s secret?
7473	On de moon? 7473 Rain?
7473	Saw it? 7473 Saw what-- who?"
7473	See anything?
7473	Shall I fire my rifle off and scare him?
7473	Shall we ask them?
7473	Shall we wait and start to- morrow?
7473	Slow down?
7473	Sure? 7473 The moon?
7473	Then how are we to get out and hunt for those diamonds, Professor?
7473	Then if we''re going to camp here for the night,proposed old Andy,"what''s the matter with me and the boys having a hunt for that man?
7473	Then may Mark, Andy and I see if we can find this man?
7473	Then the moon was once inhabited?
7473	Then we can start as soon as Mark is found?
7473	Then we''ll be about a week on the way?
7473	Then we''ve never seen the other side of the moon?
7473	Then where are the other people?
7473	Then who is he?
7473	Then why do n''t you say it?
7473	Then,cried Jack,"what''s to hinder us from going to the moon, and getting some of those diamonds?
7473	To- night?
7473	Torch- light processions?
7473	WILL IT HIT US?
7473	Wa''al, you know the old Preakness homestead, down by the bend of the creek, about four mile below here?
7473	Waiting for who?
7473	Was he anywhere near the big shed where we build the machines?
7473	Was the man alive, Washington?
7473	Water? 7473 We can stand a low temperature more easily than we can to be boiled; eh, Jack?"
7473	Well, are we all ready to start now?
7473	Well, are we all ready?
7473	Well, are we going to stand here all day?
7473	Well, boys, how does it feel to be in space once more?
7473	Well, did yo''all see him?
7473	Well, how do you feel?
7473	Well, what are we going to do when the life- torches give out, and we ca n''t breathe any more?
7473	Well, what''s to be done?
7473	Well, which way is straight ahead?
7473	Well,asked Jack cautiously,"can we go outside?"
7473	What about there being no air on the moon?
7473	What am I going to do? 7473 What are we going to do?"
7473	What are you going to do?
7473	What did I tell you?
7473	What do you intend to do with me?
7473	What do you mean by that?
7473	What do you mean?
7473	What do you think this is, an election, Wash?
7473	What do you want with me?
7473	What does that tramp want, Jack? 7473 What for?"
7473	What has happened? 7473 What has happened?
7473	What hospital was it?
7473	What is it you want, Dick?
7473	What is it?
7473	What is it?
7473	What is it?
7473	What is the matter?
7473	What is this?
7473	What is your opinion, Professor Roumann, of the temperature at the moon''s surface?
7473	What of it? 7473 What strengthens your belief?"
7473	What was the man doing when you saw him?
7473	What was yo''pleased t''saggasiate, in remarkin''concernin''de untranquility ob the densityness ob stones jumpin''ober a man what is six times high?
7473	What will we do, if we get thirsty?
7473	What''s dat?
7473	What''s that?
7473	What''s that?
7473	What''s that?
7473	What''s the matter, Washington?
7473	What''s the matter?
7473	What''s the matter?
7473	What''s the matter?
7473	What''s the matter?
7473	What''s the matter?
7473	What''s the matter?
7473	What''s the matter?
7473	What''s the matter?
7473	What''s the matter?
7473	What''s the use?
7473	What''s wrong?
7473	What, for instance?
7473	What-- another thing to delay us?
7473	What-- to- night?
7473	What?
7473	What?
7473	What?
7473	What?
7473	Whatever happened to you, Mark? 7473 Where am dose diamonds, Massa Jack?"
7473	Where are you going?
7473	Where are you going?
7473	Where did you meet him?
7473	Where did you meet the man?
7473	Where is Professor Henderson, Wash? 7473 Where was he?"
7473	Where''s Mark? 7473 Where?"
7473	Where?
7473	Who are you, and what have I done to you, that you should treat me this way? 7473 Who is he?
7473	Who would want to injure us, or damage the projectile?
7473	Who''s that?
7473	Who-- me? 7473 Why did n''t you come home?"
7473	Why did n''t you wait for me at the barn, when I went to send the telegram, as you promised you would?
7473	Why not? 7473 Why not?"
7473	Why, I suppose you''ll make a dive for a hatful of diamonds, wo n''t you? 7473 Why, Mark, what happened?"
7473	Why, what''s the matter?
7473	Why? 7473 Why?"
7473	Why?
7473	Why?
7473	Will it hit us?
7473	Will it take long?
7473	Will they pass us by?
7473	Will we ever get there?
7473	Will you not give up this plan?
7473	Will you promise to be quiet, and not kick up a fuss if I get you something to eat?
7473	Will you tell me your name?
7473	Would n''t that make you tired?
7473	Yes, but can you pull me up?
7473	Yes, but what good will it do us? 7473 Yes; do n''t you remember?"
7473	Yes; why not?
7473	You do n''t know where he lives, or whether he is staying in this vicinity, do you?
7473	You do n''t mean to say you think we''ll be all day finding the Annihilator, do you?
7473	You do n''t mean to say you want to go back there, and run the chance of being attacked by the savage Martians, do you?
7473	You do n''t mean to tell me that you believe that preposterous story, do you, Jack?
7473	You have n''t seen any suspicious characters around, have you, Wash?
7473	You mean you''ll join us?
7473	You wo n''t start for the moon until you find him, will you, Professor?
7473	You''ll go, too, wo n''t you, Mark?
7473	Am anybody hurted?"
7473	An''s''posin''some ob dem moon men takes a notion t''throw a stone at me?
7473	And how he knows me?"
7473	And what of the grains of wheat they find in the coffins of Egyptian mummies?
7473	Andy, where''s your gun?"
7473	Are you anywhere about?"
7473	Are you crazy?
7473	Are you hurt?"
7473	BACK TO EARTH-- CONCLUSION CHAPTER I A WONDERFUL STORY"Well, what do you think of it, Mark?"
7473	But are you sure you are well enough to go with us?
7473	But suppose you have made some error?
7473	But then what can be expected of lads who had gone to Mars and back again?
7473	But what do you mean?"
7473	But what made you think the writing looked like that of the crazy machinist who tried to wreck the projectile?"
7473	But what makes you think this man was an enemy, Professor?"
7473	But where am Massa Mark?"
7473	But where did you get a rope?"
7473	But would it act in time?
7473	CHAPTER II SOMETHING ABOUT OUR HEROES"Are you in earnest in proposing this trip?"
7473	CHAPTER III PREPARING FOR A VOYAGE"Seems like rather an odd thing; does n''t it?"
7473	CHAPTER XVI"WILL IT HIT US?"
7473	CHAPTER XXVII THE BLACK POOL"What are you going to do, Andy?"
7473	Ca n''t we go, Professor?"
7473	Can I be mistaken?"
7473	Can you hold on with one hand long enough to slip the loop of this rope over your shoulders?"
7473	Could n''t we start to- night?"
7473	Diamonds on de moon, eh?
7473	Diamonds on de moon, eh?
7473	Diamonds on de moon, eh?"
7473	Did either of you boys touch it?"
7473	Did you fall?"
7473	Did you learn who he was, Mark?"
7473	Do n''t you know that you are liable to arrest for this?"
7473	Do n''t you remember you and I had it when we were fixing the pipes outside the projectile, when we had the other breakdown?
7473	Do we have to do anything to the torches to make them operate, Professor Roumann?"
7473	Do you live here?"
7473	Do you need a doctor?"
7473	Does any one know?"
7473	Get me the negative plate remover, will you, Mark?"
7473	Guess that''ll convince you; wo n''t it?"
7473	Have you caught some disease?"
7473	Have you made any calculation as to speed?"
7473	Heah him crowin''now?
7473	How about it, Professor Henderson?"
7473	How can I do it?"
7473	How could a ghost be alive?
7473	How did you happen to be taken to a hospital?"
7473	How much longer would they last?
7473	I had a good look at him, an''----""Who was it?"
7473	I wonder if I ca n''t get loose?"
7473	I wonder if this can be the person we''re looking for?"
7473	I wonder what can be the matter?"
7473	I wonder what dey''ll be doin''next?
7473	I wonder what''s wrong?"
7473	I wonder where we can go next?"
7473	If we are in danger of hitting another one of those things, or even a meteor, we''ll steer out of the way, wo n''t we?"
7473	If you want t''see him, why do n''t you go there?"
7473	In a hospital?
7473	Is it anything bad?"
7473	Is n''t Mark home?"
7473	Is that the moon?"
7473	Is that water?"
7473	Is your stateroom all fixed up?"
7473	It is in good working order; is n''t it, Professor Roumann?"
7473	It is one of the new tools we got, and it has not been used for anything; has it?".
7473	It was real, then?"
7473	It''s jest in theory, am it, Massa Mark, dat a stone goes six times as far?"
7473	Mark says I''m wrong, but, Professor Henderson, is n''t Reonaris to the Martians what diamonds are to us?"
7473	Or would the meteor prove too powerful for it?
7473	Shall I seal the door?"
7473	That was n''t wrong, was it?"
7473	They looked up at his excitable entrance, and Mr. Henderson called out:"Why, Jack, what''s the matter?"
7473	Was it an answer, or merely the echo of his own voice?
7473	Was n''t he helping you catch the rooster?"
7473	Were you about to start?"
7473	Whar''ll I be, when a stone goes six times as far as it does on heah?
7473	What became of you?
7473	What can I do?"
7473	What caused it?"
7473	What did we bring it along for if we''re not going to eat?
7473	What do you mean?"
7473	What do you reckon did it, boys?"
7473	What dreadful mystery were they about to penetrate?
7473	What happened to the rock of meat, Andy?"
7473	What happened?"
7473	What has become of your life- torch?"
7473	What was that?
7473	What would happen in the desolate darkness?
7473	What''s up, anyhow?"
7473	When does the projectile start?"
7473	Where are you?"
7473	Where have you been?
7473	Where have you been?
7473	Where have you been?"
7473	Where is the mysterious man?
7473	Where were you hurt?"
7473	Where yo''all been?"
7473	Where?"
7473	Who could have done this?
7473	Who is he, anyhow?
7473	Who is the fellow who has been masquerading as you?"
7473	Who''s afraid?"
7473	Why did he do it?"
7473	Why did n''t I wait for Jack at the barn, as I promised?
7473	Why did n''t you capture my chum Jack, too, while you were about it?"
7473	Why did n''t you wait for me?"
7473	Why did you come alone?
7473	Why do n''t they go on without that confounded rooster?
7473	Why do n''t you leave for the moon to- night, professor?"
7473	Why not?
7473	Why was this man off here alone?"
7473	Will I be in time?"
7473	Will you come, Andy?"
7473	Will you help me remove the knocker?
7473	With the temperature at twenty- eight when the sun was shining, what might it not fall to in the darkness?
7473	Would he be in time?
7473	Would it send them along through space at enormous speed?
7473	Would it work as well as had the Etherium one?
7473	the negative plate remover not there?"
16457	A bolide? 16457 A vacuum?"
16457	Ah, who indeed?
16457	All right and proper,said Ardan;"why should n''t she have one of her own?"
16457	And do all astronomers admit its existence?
16457	And famous actors, and singers, and composers, and-- and photographers?
16457	And mine?
16457	And philosophers like Plato, Aristotle, Descartes, Bacon, Kant?
16457	And poets like Homer, Virgil, Dante, Shakspeare, Göthe and Hugo?
16457	And scientists like Euclid, Archimedes, Copernicus, Newton, Pascal?
16457	And supposing the Earth to fall into the Sun?
16457	And when is it to befall us?
16457	And who can assert that the Moon did not exist long before the Earth was called into being at all? 16457 And you can handle the instrument right before my eyes?"
16457	And you can rely on your figures?
16457	Any sign of them yet, gentlemen?
16457	Ardan,asked Barbican,"do you think people could beat iron without a hammer, or turn up furrows without a plough?"
16457	Are we falling or are we not?
16457	At how many degrees is the temperature of the interplanetary space estimated?
16457	Barbican,asked M''Nicholl suddenly,"what peak is that which lies almost directly south of_ Pico_?
16457	Besides, even admitting that the Sun will not soon be extinguished, what is to prevent the Earth from shooting away from him?
16457	Besides?
16457	But is the air replaced by nothing?
16457	But the bullet?
16457	But you can form a few hypotheses?
16457	But you saw them once, did n''t you?
16457	By Jove,suddenly exclaimed Ardan,"why did n''t we start at the moment of Full Earth?--that is when our globe and the Sun were in opposition?"
16457	Ca n''t we modify the Projectile''s movement?
16457	Ca n''t you attach thirty of them to the Nautilus and sink us again?
16457	Can the divers readily reach such depths?
16457	Can we start to- morrow?
16457	Can you say as much?
16457	Cooled off?
16457	Correct it?
16457	Could you have done it yourself?
16457	Dear boys, will you allow me to give my little guess on the subject?
16457	Did you ever understand what is meant by a_ double ordinate_?
16457	Did you hear that report, friend Michael?
16457	Did you see nothing whatever during the night, Professor?
16457	Did you, friend Barbican?
16457	Do n''t I though?
16457	Do n''t I though?
16457	Do n''t you approve of my suggestion, Captain?
16457	Do n''t you see a fine ribbon of light?
16457	Do n''t you see the furrows? 16457 Do you consider these buoys powerful enough to lift the Projectile, Captain?"
16457	Do you forget the rockets?
16457	Does it make any real difference whether it is one or the other?
16457	Doing what? 16457 For surely you would not venture to assert that the Moon is uninhabitable by a race of beings having an organization different from ours?"
16457	Friend Michael, you say we''re moving?
16457	Have you ever seen the Moon?
16457	Have you never heard of the principle of compensation? 16457 Have you nothing to say either, Captain?"
16457	Hello?
16457	Here, friend Michael, get me a cord, wo n''t you? 16457 Hey?"
16457	How about being ahead of time?
16457	How do the general heights of the Himalayahs compare with those of the highest lunar mountains?
16457	How do you know that they have not made such an attempt?
16457	How have we forgotten them?
16457	How in the world can you tell?
16457	How is it that we can not see her?
16457	How is it that we see him only through the bottom light of our Projectile?
16457	How is that?
16457	How much did you say?
16457	How much is its diameter?
16457	How shall we start this experiment?
16457	How so, friend Michael?
16457	How so?
16457	How would you like to pay for your light by the loss of the atmosphere, which, according to some philosophers, is piled away on the dark side?
16457	How''s that, Barbican?
16457	How''s that?
16457	How??
16457	How??
16457	I do n''t deny it, dear friend,said Barbican quietly, notwithstanding the unceremonious interruption;"but why do you say so just now?"
16457	I hope it''s not the''cup- lead''you are using, Brownson?
16457	If it is not one, in fact, what can it be?
16457	If so, what should be their height?
16457	In consequence of the explosion?
16457	In the dark?
16457	Is it of the slightest possible importance which of the two curves controls the Projectile?
16457	Is that really the case, Captain?
16457	Is the Chair,asked Ardan,"to infer from the honorable gentleman''s observations that he considers the Moon to be a world much older than the Earth?"
16457	Is there not a telescope at Long''s Peak? 16457 Killed?"
16457	Landscape,Ardan said;"what do you mean by a landscape?
16457	Let us see, Barbican,asked M''Nicholl;"where has Petit''s calculation placed us?"
16457	Let''s see,asked Ardan,"who was Fourier, and who was Pouillet?"
16457	Mac, my boy,said Ardan seriously,"do n''t it strike you as a little out of order to ask how you are to return when you have not got there yet?"
16457	Made it? 16457 Moving?
16457	No more?
16457	No? 16457 Nor diminish its velocity?"
16457	Not bad,smiled Barbican approvingly;"only where is the hand that flung the stone or threw the ball?"
16457	Not even by lightening it, as a heavily laden ship is lightened, by throwing cargo overboard?
16457	Now then what is this Integral Calculus of yours?
16457	Now then, Ardan, what do_ you_ say to the first question? 16457 Now then?"
16457	Now those not quite up to Mont Blanc?
16457	Now what is the consequence of this law? 16457 Now, my boys,"Ardan went on,"all things thus turning out quite comfortable, I would just ask you why we should not succeed?
16457	One, for instance?
16457	Our external temperature may be reckoned at how much?
16457	Perhaps your philosophership has taken the trouble to calculate how many years it will take our unfortunate_ Terra Mater_ to cool off?
16457	Probably not,said Ardan,"but why not?"
16457	Ready?
16457	Rows of sugar cane?
16457	Shall my muscular strength diminish in the same proportion?
16457	Shall we commence at once?
16457	So much as a third?
16457	Softly again, dear boy,said Barbican;"how do you know that our Projectile must pull up somewhere?"
16457	Spillikins?
16457	Suppose we reach this dead point,asked Ardan;"what then is to become of us?"
16457	Switched off? 16457 That is the fate in store for our Earth?"
16457	That''s_ Mare Nectaris_, the gray spot over there on the southwest, is n''t it?
16457	The Japanese Current, Captain?
16457	The Sun?
16457	The hand is hardly necessary,replied Ardan, by no means disconcerted;"but as for the ball, what do you say to a comet?"
16457	The most elegant French I ever heard, backed by the purest Parisian accent,replied Barbican, highly amused;"Do n''t you think so, Captain?"
16457	The next in rank?
16457	Then I ask again,said the Frenchman;"why have n''t they made such an attempt?"
16457	These cocks and hens?
16457	Towards the Moon?
16457	Very true, my dear boy,observed Barbican;"but how could we breathe?"
16457	Very well then, why?
16457	Was Galileo tolerably successful in his calculations?
16457	Well, Lieutenant, how goes the sounding?
16457	Well, did you ever see any of them strike the Earth''s surface?
16457	Well, what are you thinking of?
16457	Well?
16457	Well?
16457	What Delphic oracle says so?
16457	What ails you?
16457	What are those peaks beyond him?
16457	What are you going to do with these chickens?
16457	What body, for instance?
16457	What can be the cause of this peculiarity?
16457	What can we do?
16457	What can we throw overboard? 16457 What do you conclude from this rigmarole of yours?"
16457	What do you know?
16457	What do you mean by such a question, Captain?
16457	What do you mean by your cultivated fields?
16457	What do you mean by''relatively motionless''?
16457	What do you mean?
16457	What do you mean?
16457	What do you mean?
16457	What for?
16457	What have you got?
16457	What have you to say to that, Barbican?
16457	What have you to say to that, Barbican?
16457	What is it then?
16457	What is your opinion on this point, Barbican?
16457	What noise was that?
16457	What of it? 16457 What on earth can such a consarn be, Barbican?"
16457	What other view?
16457	What peaked mountain is that which we have just passed on our right?
16457	What shall we do, Barbican?
16457	What''s that?
16457	What''s that?
16457	What''s the depth, Coleman?
16457	What''s the matter now?
16457	What''s the matter?
16457	What''s the matter?
16457	What''s the use of a man writing to you if he ca n''t send you what he writes?
16457	What''s the use of his sending it to you if he can have it read without that trouble?
16457	What''s up now?
16457	What? 16457 What?"
16457	What??
16457	What??
16457	When? 16457 When?"
16457	Where are those furrows?
16457	Where are we now?
16457	Where can they have gone to?
16457	Where for?
16457	Where is that infernal Pro-- pro-- jectile?
16457	Where is the Moon?
16457	Where''s the Moon?
16457	Which are the chief lunar mountains that exceed Mont Blanc in altitude?
16457	Which is as much as to say--?
16457	Which is the highest in the lot?
16457	Which must have been attended with a tremendous report?
16457	Who can tell?
16457	Who says there are no Selenites?
16457	Who says they have not done so?
16457	Who shall say what thou art? 16457 Why conceal them then?"
16457	Why did n''t we execute this grand manoeuvre the first time we reached the neutral point?
16457	Why did n''t we fasten a wire to the Projectile?
16457	Why did we not hear that report?
16457	Why may not there be something plausible in such a hypothesis?
16457	Why not calculate the exact fraction of a second it would take to cook a couple of eggs?
16457	Why not consider them,he asked,"to be the simple phenomena of vegetation?"
16457	Why not tell it at once then to a fellow that''s dying of impatience to know all about it? 16457 Why not?"
16457	Why not?
16457	Why not?
16457	Why not?
16457	Why so?
16457	Why so?
16457	Why so?
16457	Why so?
16457	Will either take us anywhere that you know of?
16457	Will either take us back to the Earth?
16457	With what object?
16457	You can show me how they got at the initial velocity of our Projectile?
16457	You can?
16457	You do n''t mean surely that we''re going to sit here, like bumps on a log, doing nothing until it will be too late to attempt anything?
16457	You do n''t mean to say, Barbican,observed M''Nicholl,"that Petit has seen this very one?"
16457	You mean it''s all the Moon''s fault, do n''t you, in setting herself like a screen between us and the Sun?
16457	You think so?
16457	You understand now, Ardan, do n''t you?
16457	You want a receipt, do n''t you, Captain?
16457	You''ll not give us an answer when we ask you a reasonable question?
16457	You''re in earnest?
16457	Your second reason?
16457	_ Mille tonerres!_cried Ardan, greatly excited;"what is that?
16457	_ Vive la Science!_ Henceforward, what miscreant will persist in saying that the Savants are good for nothing? 16457 A nice pair of scientists you are? 16457 A sea, according to the early astronomers? 16457 A thin, pale, silvery crescent?
16457	A wonderful head, the Boss''s, is n''t it M''Nicholl?"
16457	Ah, who can tell?}
16457	Am I ever to see my ideal of a true scientific man in the flesh?
16457	Am I right, Signor Barbicani, maestro illustrissimo?"
16457	Am_ I_ alive?
16457	And if air, why not water?
16457	And suppose some lunar Etna or Vesuvius was flashing out its fires, was it not even possible that their eye could catch a glimpse of the lurid gleam?
16457	And was all danger over?
16457	And what is the trouble?"
16457	And-- now I think on it-- why not fling ourselves out through the window?
16457	Another question of greater moment to us just now is: where are we?
16457	Anyway, what else could have happened?
16457	Are we so shiftless that we ca n''t do without them when we get to the Moon?"
16457	As they could neither reach the Moon nor return to the Earth, what_ was_ to befall them?
16457	At last, impatient of further restraint, he burst out:"Who the deuce cares for her secrets?
16457	At sea, where between waves or winds or paddles or screws or machinery, everything is tremor, quiver or jar?
16457	At what rate was the Projectile now moving?
16457	At what velocity was the Projectile now moving?
16457	Atmosphere is gas, great in volume, small in matter; where would there be room for it?
16457	Barbican?"
16457	Besides, what is easier?
16457	Burning_ in vacuo_?
16457	But did it also convince them of the existence of an atmosphere on her surface whose vivifying molecules would render_ life_ possible?
16457	But did our friends complain of the new perils now looming up before them?
16457	But during those two hours of immersion in the dark shadow, had this distance been increased or diminished?
16457	But had the impression made on the travellers''eyes been a mere vision or the result of a reality?
16457	But how about the Sun, Barbican?
16457	But how do you propose attaching them to the Projectile?"
16457	But how long was this good fortune of theirs going to last?
16457	But how to account for the_ grooves_?
16457	But if they have_ not_ been able to do so, why, they''re not a bit wiser than ourselves-- But what''s the matter with the Projectile?
16457	But in fifteen days later, where would the Projectile be?
16457	But that greenish tint-- to what was it due?
16457	But the velocity being undeniably very moderate, how explain such a decided resistance to Lunar attraction?
16457	But was nothing to be gained by the trip?
16457	But was such an operation possible?
16457	But was the death of the adventurers so very certain after all?
16457	But what has become of its motion?
16457	But what_ was_ the nearest port?
16457	But why are there cracks?
16457	But would not the heat of the long day be great enough to thaw it back again?
16457	But, Ardan, why do you insist on Lunarians?
16457	But-- by the way-- Barbican, are there any eclipses in the Moon?"
16457	But_ were_ they falling?
16457	By the bye-- talking of Marston-- if we never return to the Earth, what is to prevent him from following us to the Moon?"
16457	By what geological phenomena could this blazing coma have been possibly produced?
16457	By what?"
16457	Ca n''t a man write without being obliged to send his letters?"
16457	Can it be another projectile?"
16457	Can not gun- cotton be readily manufactured on any occasion?
16457	Can that be the Earth?"
16457	Can we point out some analogies to this on the Earth?
16457	Can you call a bottle of ink intensely black, spilled over a sheet of paper intensely white, a landscape?"
16457	Can you see anything?"
16457	Captain, have you any smoked glass?"
16457	Catch the idea now, eh?"
16457	Chess, draughts, cards, dominoes-- everything in fact, but a billiard table?"
16457	Clear?"
16457	Could Belfast have announced to the world such a startling piece of intelligence?
16457	Could an observation so rapid, so fleeting, so superficial, be really regarded as a genuine scientific affirmation?
16457	Could he have caught a glimpse of it at its reappearance?
16457	Could such a feeble glimmer of the invisible disc justify them in pronouncing a decided opinion on the inhabitability of the Moon?
16457	Could the wine have caused it?
16457	Could they be rivers of lava once vomited from that centre by resistless volcanic agency and afterwards crystallized into glassy rock?
16457	Could they do so, even if they had desired?
16457	DON''T I THOUGH?
16457	Dear friends, how is that for high?"
16457	Diana''s nimbus?
16457	Did he really see all this?
16457	Did n''t I rescue you from certain death with these two hands?
16457	Did n''t I tell you so?"
16457	Did n''t he by means of the Monster Telescope, see the Projectile, as large as life, whirling round and round the Moon?
16457	Did not Belfast know his business?
16457	Did not Mr. M''Connell see it also?"
16457	Did not the Captain know his business?
16457	Did not the truth of one incident render the other an absolute impossibility?
16457	Did not the_ party_ gain by it?
16457	Did not these strange successive names somewhat justify his flights of fancy?
16457	Did the neighborhood of some mysterious body retain it firmly imbedded in ether?
16457	Did they mean to say that he had seen nothing at all?
16457	Did they mean to say that the bowsprit of the_ Susquehanna_ had not been broken off?
16457	Did they really catch a glimpse of the mysterious invisible disc that the eye of man had never before lit upon?
16457	Do n''t you remember a conversation we had with you one day?
16457	Do n''t you see Barbican''s shoulder still bleeding by the violence of the shock?"
16457	Do n''t you see three broken pillars lying beside their pedestals?
16457	Do you forget, you herd of ignoramuses, that the Projectile weighs only ten tons?"
16457	Do you know, Barbican?"
16457	Do you think such a question ever occurred to them?
16457	Do you think that their inhabitants are as ignorant regarding their satellites as we are regarding ours?"
16457	Do you, or do you not, think that the Moon resembles the Earth in being the abode of animals and intelligent beings?
16457	Do your hear?
16457	Do_ real_ scientists lose their tempers for a trifle?
16457	Do_ you_ mean to say you understand the terrible jargon, Captain?"
16457	Does n''t it bring the Moon within a few miles of the Rocky Mountains, and enable us to see on her surface, objects as small as nine feet in diameter?
16457	Does not everything point out to one great cause of their origin?
16457	Does not its parallelism with the mountain chain suggest a causative relation?
16457	Does not this plain look like--?"
16457	Doing how?"
16457	Doing?
16457	Eh, Captain?"
16457	Eighteen years from now, will she not occupy exactly the same spot that she does to- day?"
16457	Even if desirous to act otherwise, what could they have done?
16457	First:_ Is the Moon inhabitable?_ Second:_ Has the Moon ever been inhabited?_""That''s the way to go about it,"said the Captain.
16457	First:_ Is the Moon inhabitable?_ Second:_ Has the Moon ever been inhabited?_""That''s the way to go about it,"said the Captain.
16457	HOW IS THAT FOR HIGH?
16457	Had Barbican''s ingenuity been attended with a fortunate result?
16457	Had he seen the Projectile before it vanished behind the Moon''s north pole?
16457	Had not Belfast seen the Projectile?
16457	Had not Bloomsbury seen the Projectile?
16457	Had not they always said how it was to end?
16457	Had one among them, our friend Marston, for instance, been favored with a glimpse at the interior of the projectile, what would he have seen?
16457	Had she ever been a beautiful world of life, and color, and magnificent variety?
16457	Had the Projectile come within the sphere of some strange unknown influence?
16457	Had the Projectile suddenly become a great metallic coffin bearing its ghastly contents through the air with the rapidity of a lightning flash?
16457	Had the shock been sufficiently deadened by the springs, the buffers, the water layers, and the partitions so readily ruptured?
16457	Had this path been disturbed by that dangerous meteor?
16457	Hang the Eye of Science-- will either curve take us to the Moon?"
16457	Has what we have seen confirmed any theory of yours or confounded any hypothesis?
16457	Have astronomers any valid reasons for supposing the atmosphere to have fled to the dark side of the Moon?"
16457	Have n''t we insured the Earth for 400 thousand years?''
16457	Have they done anything?
16457	Have they seen anything?
16457	Have you any doubts whatever of the effectiveness of your brilliant and extremely original idea?
16457	Have you not enough to trouble you otherwise?
16457	Have you not often seen the November meteors, for instance, streaking the skies, thousands at a time?"
16457	Have you seen enough to induce you to adopt decided conclusions?
16457	Having come so near the Moon-- about 30 miles-- why had not the Projectile gone all the way?
16457	How about the other planets, Barbican?
16457	How are we going to amuse ourselves?
16457	How can our Baltimore Gun Club Projectile then escape the universal law?
16457	How could they imagine that the Observatory men had committed such a blunder?
16457	How do we detect the existence of life?
16457	How do you make that out?"
16457	How is that for high?"
16457	How is that for high?"
16457	How is the line now?"
16457	How soon?"
16457	How were they to know, they asked him, the precise instant at which the Projectile would reach the neutral point?
16457	I''m a plagiarist, am I?"
16457	If Bloomsbury was right, was not Belfast an ass?
16457	If they were moving the explosion must have taken place; but if the explosion had taken place, why had they not heard the report?
16457	If they write words of even a few hundred yards and sentences a mile or two long, what is to prevent us from reading them?
16457	In either alternative, what should be the lot of the daring adventurers?
16457	In fact, what could be more tantalizing?
16457	In fact, who can assert that the Earth itself is not a great piece broken off the Moon?
16457	In fact, who can even assert that the Moon has always been the Earth''s satellite?"
16457	In heaven''s name, what''s up?"
16457	In what direction would it have been drawn by the forces innumerable of attractions incalculable?
16457	Is it at rest?
16457	Is it not by_ movement_?
16457	Is n''t it, Barbican?"
16457	Is n''t that very like a bull, Mr. Philosopher Barbican?"
16457	Is not the Columbiad still at Stony Hill?
16457	Is not_ motion_ its result, no matter what may be its organization?"
16457	Is such a body in motion?
16457	It must therefore have been formed by several eruptions in succession, but in that case what had become of the ejected matter?
16457	Marston hobbled eagerly towards him and asked:"What have you done towards fishing them up, Captain?"
16457	Nearer to her or further off?
16457	Now that you have established the existence of your humanity in the Moon, the Chair would respectfully ask how it has all so completely disappeared?"
16457	Now the Projectile at this moment was nearing this point; if it reached it, what would be the consequence?
16457	Now what_ have_ we seen?
16457	Of course you have calculated the weight of a wire 240 thousand miles long?"
16457	Of course, you are both still desirous of reaching the Moon?"
16457	Oh what??
16457	Oh what??
16457	Oh, Michael, Michael, why did n''t you know the Captain earlier?"
16457	On land, where the dwellings, whether in populous city or lonely country, continually experience every shock that thrills the Earth''s crust?
16457	On what does the honorable gentleman base his_ most firm conviction_?"
16457	Or to that of the lava covering it here and there?
16457	Or to the color resulting from the mixture of other colors seen at a distance too great to allow of their being distinguished separately?
16457	Or was it rushing resistlessly into infinity on the wings of that pitchy night?
16457	Our tenement may become our coffin, eh?
16457	Prince Esterhazy''s Tokay?
16457	Shall we ever live to see direct communication established with the Moon?
16457	Should n''t we be as safe out there as that bolide?
16457	Showers, storms, fogs, rainbows-- is not the whole mortal life of man comprised in these four words?
16457	So we must remain shut up in our Projectile?"
16457	Solidified by the intense cold?
16457	Surely the cone of the Earth''s shadow must extend far enough to envelop her surface?"
16457	That it would never reach the Moon, was now beyond all doubt; but where was it going?
16457	The Moon could never be reached, but was it not possible that her surface could be carefully observed?
16457	The Projectile weighs about 20 thousand pounds, or 10 tons?"
16457	The blazing head of the great bolt that rivets the lunar hemispheres in union inseverable?
16457	The breakfast?
16457	The first question all asked was: Is it genuine or bogus?
16457	The golden clasp of her floating robes?
16457	The living or the dead?
16457	The probability is that we shall never--""Excuse me, Lieutenant,"interrupted the unrebuffed little Midshipman;"Ca n''t Barbican write?"
16457	Then again as to her atmosphere-- why should she have lost her atmosphere?
16457	Then, what was their Projectile to become?
16457	Therefore, in a map of the Moon, as the bottom means the north and the top the south, why does not the right mean the west and the left the east?
16457	These two movements have certainly equal periods now; why not always?"
16457	Those nights and days, for instance, 354 hours long?"
16457	To a dense tropical vegetation maintained by a low atmosphere, a mile or so in thickness?
16457	To the actual color of the surface itself?
16457	To what cause was this tint to be attributed?
16457	Try a little water?"
16457	Was it not a distinct contradiction of the whole story told by their opponents?
16457	Was it of a nature to justify immediate action or not?
16457	Was its present condition a foreshadowing of what our Earth is to become?
16457	Was n''t it what anybody''s common sense expected?
16457	Was not the Great Telescope then good for anything?
16457	Was that all the Earth was ever to know of their great enterprise?
16457	Was the Moon habitable?
16457	Was the Moon older or younger than the Earth in the order of Creation?
16457	Was the curve therefore_ not_ parabolic?
16457	Was there any ground for hope?
16457	Was there anything more absurd ever conceived?
16457	Were n''t we both half- killed by the shock?
16457	Were not his eyes good for anything?
16457	Were they at last, contrary to all expectations, about to reach the goal that they had been so ardently wishing for?
16457	Were they shooting through space like a meteor?
16457	Were they three corpses?
16457	Were we not struck by a comet''s tail in 1861?"
16457	What can this be?"
16457	What could all this mean?
16457	What could be the nature of this radiating aureola?
16457	What could have produced the deviation?
16457	What could such a charge do with a ball weighing 30 times as much or 15,000 pounds?
16457	What did it contain?
16457	What did they see, what could they see at a distance so uncertain that Barbican has never been able even to guess at it?
16457	What did this prove?
16457	What do I care for them?
16457	What do I say?
16457	What do we mean by heating water?
16457	What do you call it, Barbican?"
16457	What do you think of another comparison?
16457	What do you think of that lofty comparison, hey?"
16457	What do you want of this cord, Barbican?"
16457	What effect had been produced by the frightful concussion?
16457	What had become of the resolutions they had discussed so ably and passed so decidedly a few hours before?
16457	What had brought about this great revulsion in the spirits of our bold adventurers?
16457	What had taken place within the Projectile?
16457	What had taken place?
16457	What has done it?
16457	What if the atmosphere had really withdrawn to this dark face?
16457	What is it anyhow?
16457	What is it called?
16457	What is it that he do n''t know?
16457	What is the first"sea"you find in the hemisphere on the left?
16457	What is the use of pestering our brains about it?
16457	What is the_ Mare_ itself?
16457	What kind of an artillery man is he who ca n''t master his bullets?
16457	What makes it so hot?
16457	What matters the exact term so you comprehend me?"
16457	What of it?"
16457	What of that?
16457	What pen can describe it?
16457	What pencil can reproduce the magnificence of its coloring?
16457	What reply can you make to a man who has sounded the dark abysses of the_ Plato_ crater?
16457	What thundering thing is coming at us now?"
16457	What was he doing at the time?
16457	What was his bustling, honest, good- natured, impetuous heart at now?
16457	What was it?
16457	What was the cause?
16457	What were the speculations of the Scientific World upon the subject?
16457	What were they doing just now?
16457	What would be the consequence?
16457	What would the investigator gain by charging the quack with murder?
16457	What would the_ Belfasters_ say now?
16457	What''s to prevent Barbican and his friends from constructing a gigantic alphabet?
16457	What?
16457	What_ did_ they see?
16457	What_ had_ switched them off?
16457	What_ had_ switched them off?
16457	When Ardan learned that he was responsible for the whole trouble, do you think the information disconcerted him?
16457	When we get to the Moon, what shall we do there?
16457	When you land on a peak or on a steep mountain side, where are you?
16457	When?"
16457	Whence proceeded this strange intoxication whose consequences might have proved so disastrous?
16457	Where are we going to?
16457	Where did you get that word?
16457	Where in fact could they have found a spot more favorable for undisturbed repose?
16457	Where were they now, at eight o''clock in the morning of the day called in America the sixth of December?
16457	Which of the two curves had been the one most probably taken by the Projectile?
16457	Who can say that our romantic French friend was altogether wrong in thus explaining the astute fancies of the old astronomers?
16457	Who can say what is still in store for us?
16457	Who could tell, know, calculate-- who could even guess, amid the horror of this gloomy blackness?
16457	Who knows if our poor friends are still alive?"
16457	Who would have ever dreamed of even the possibility of such an encounter?
16457	Who?"
16457	Why am I then forced to stop?
16457	Why did it not fall?
16457	Why did n''t we hear the report?"
16457	Why did n''t we think of it before?
16457	Why did n''t you bring a scaphander and an air pump?
16457	Why did not they make you a professor of astronomy?
16457	Why do people grease the axles?
16457	Why do you think so?"
16457	Why have they not fired a projectile from the regions lunar to the regions terrestrial?"
16457	Why not?"
16457	Why should it sink into craters?
16457	Why should we not arrive there?"
16457	Why so?
16457	Will any Air Line of space navigation ever undertake to start a system of locomotion between the different members of the solar system?
16457	Will not the Moon again pass through the zenith of Florida?
16457	Worse than the sunken reefs of the Southern Seas or the snags of the Mississippi, how could the Projectile be expected to avoid them?
16457	Would n''t it be glorious to fish them up alive and well?
16457	Would not our first installation of discovery have been under circumstances decidedly extremely favorable?
16457	Would not they hold down their heads in confusion and disgrace?
16457	Would not this be enough to infuse life into the whole continent?
16457	Yes, or no?"
16457	Yes, or no?"
16457	You do n''t see them?
16457	You understand, do n''t you?"
16457	[ Illustration: HOW IS THAT FOR HIGH?]
16457	_ Could_ they ever get back?
16457	_ Vive_--"--"But what has all this to do with the question under discussion?"
16457	_ Was the Moon inhabited?
16457	_ d_, the distance from the centre of the Earth to the centre of the Moon is 56 terrestrial radii, which the Captain calculates to be...?"
16457	_ g_ gravity being at Florida about 32- 1/4 feet, of course_ g_ x_ r_ must be-- how much, Captain?"
16457	a plain of solid sand, according to later authority?
16457	an optical delusion or the shadow of a solid fact?
16457	and such heat would be capable of--?"
16457	and what, pray, is ether?"
16457	are we not fully prepared?"
16457	as Marston whispered to those around him; otherwise how could they have ever run up that flag?
16457	asked Ardan, triumphantly;"Where''s the bullet?
16457	asked Ardan,"you think they have artists like Phidias, Michael Angelo and Raphael?"
16457	asked Ardan;"a perfect vacuum?"
16457	asked Barbican,"right beneath us?
16457	asked Barbican:"even if there_ is_ any life--?"
16457	asked M''Nicholl,"no total eclipses in the Moon?
16457	asked M''Nicholl;"is there any likelihood of our getting a better view of it?"
16457	cried Ardan, in a mocking tone,"is there really anything that Mathematics ca n''t do?"
16457	cried Ardan,"another satellite besides the Moon?
16457	cried the Captain;"this going to the Moon is all very well, but how shall we get back?"
16457	cried the versatile Ardan,"Why do you think, Barbican, that we are at present beyond the limits of the terrestrial atmosphere?"
16457	exclaimed Barbican;"What is the meaning of it, Sir?"
16457	exclaimed Barbican;"cumbered yourself with such gimcracks?"
16457	he cried in despair;"Barbican, must we really give you up though separated from us by the short distance of only a few miles?"
16457	observed Ardan, apparently much surprised;"who''d have thought it?
16457	or an immense forest, according to De la Rue of London, so far the Moon''s most successful photographer?
16457	or as Mount Washington?
16457	or as Ætna?
16457	or ever even be heard from?
16457	protested Ardan;"What next?"
16457	real or got up by the stockbrokers?
16457	should I have offered to take you there without a good object in view?"
16457	the few seconds we should require for flinging out poor Satellite?"
16457	the truth of the Bloomsbury dispatch?
16457	what do you mean?
16457	what else?"
16457	what shall we do?"
16457	{ Return?
12901	A bolis, on fire, in the void?
12901	A sportsman? 12901 Agreed,"answered Nicholl;"but is not the moon habitable for beings differently organised to us?"
12901	Agreed,answered Nicholl;"but why should not these movements have been equal, since they are so actually?"
12901	Agreed,said Barbicane,"but how are we to breathe?"
12901	Ah, my friends,exclaimed Michel Ardan,"can you imagine what this peaceful orb of night was once like?
12901	Ah, why not?
12901	And I,replied Barbicane,"I repeat-- who says they have not done it?"
12901	And could you have made the calculation yourself?
12901	And could you show me how they calculated the initial speed of our vehicle?
12901	And how much will that cost at two cents a pound?
12901	And how, pray?
12901	And how, pray?
12901	And if there are no Selenites?
12901	And in the sun?
12901	And shall we perceive it?
12901	And suppose the earth were to fall upon the sun?
12901	And the bullet? 12901 And the weight of a wire 86,000 leagues long,"answered Nicholl,"does that go for nothing?"
12901	And we are not roasted by it?
12901	And what about your Apaches and your Comanches-- are they civilised?
12901	And what are those means?
12901	And what do you conclude from that, talker eternal?
12901	And what is the heat of the sun?
12901	And what is the second reason?
12901	And what truth is there in that hypothesis?
12901	And where has the infernal bullet fallen?
12901	And who can say,exclaimed Michel Ardan,"that the moon did not exist before the earth?"
12901	And why should it not be so?
12901	And you know the reason?
12901	And you say that the like fate is reserved for the earth?
12901	And you will not forget your rifle?
12901	And you, Barbicane?
12901	Are we falling?
12901	Are we not ready?
12901	As much as that?
12901	At what number of degrees do they estimate the temperature of the planetary space?
12901	Brass?
12901	But I say,he continued,"what time is it?"
12901	But air to breathe on the road?
12901	But at least,he said,"you have some plan, some means of execution?"
12901	But do you recognise him?
12901	But how is that?
12901	But how? 12901 But if the Selenites are six times smaller?"
12901	But is this fact authenticated?
12901	But provisions? 12901 But the heat developed by the speed of the projectile whilst crossing the beds of air?"
12901	But we can make suppositions, I suppose?
12901	But what are you going to do with those fowls?
12901	But what do you want to do?
12901	But what explanation of these trails of light have been imagined?
12901	But what if we came too late?
12901	But what is it, pray?
12901	But what is the use of the good results of such studies and so many difficulties conquered? 12901 But when?"
12901	But your fall upon the moon, supposing you ever get there?
12901	But, my dear president,said the major,"is not aluminium quoted exceedingly high?"
12901	But,asked Nicholl,"what is the exterior temperature?"
12901	By cooling?
12901	By what means?
12901	Can nothing be done?
12901	Can we not modify the motion of the projectile?
12901	Clowns like Arnal, and photographers like-- Nadar?
12901	Command it?
12901	Could you use that tool before me?
12901	Did not Herschel, in 1787, observe a great number of luminous points on the surface of the moon?
12901	Did you hear the detonation, which must certainly have been formidable?
12901	Do all astronomers admit the existence of this satellite?
12901	Do you approve of my idea, Nicholl?
12901	Do you intend giving a diameter of sixty feet to your projectile?
12901	Do you know any who belong to the latter category?
12901	Do you mean to say you understand that, captain?
12901	Do you pretend to struggle with the impossible?
12901	Do you understand now?
12901	Do you want to find some vegetation?
12901	Eh?
12901	Excuse me, sir,said the midshipman,"but can not President Barbicane write?"
12901	For example, when I have been running some time, and am covered with sweat, why am I forced to stop? 12901 Good,"replied Barbicane, smiling;"and what hand would be powerful enough to hurl the stone that would produce such a shock?"
12901	Good; and does Nicholl understand what that means?
12901	Has the moon been inhabited?
12901	Has the time it will take our unfortunate globe to melt been calculated?
12901	Has this place any name?
12901	Have we not water- cushions placed between movable partitions elastic enough to protect us sufficiently?
12901	Have you altered your plans for the projectile as the telegram demanded?
12901	Have you ever seen the moon?
12901	Have you heard any firing?
12901	Have you not seen shooting stars by thousands in the sky at certain epochs?
12901	Hollow!--then it will be an obus?
12901	How are we to do that, pray?
12901	How nowhere?
12901	How shall we manage it?
12901	How so?
12901	How so?
12901	How?
12901	I ask you now,said he as he concluded,"if two good beings like you were made to break each other''s heads with gunshots?"
12901	I do n''t ask that question because I want to draw back, but I repeat my question, and ask,''How shall we get back?''
12901	I do n''t say we are not,answered Barbicane;"but why?"
12901	I say,said he,"it is all very well to go to the moon, but how shall we get back again?"
12901	I see Eve, but where is Adam?
12901	I will try to do it, however, but I ask Nicholl if movement seems to him the necessary result of existence, under no matter what organisation?
12901	If I succeed in lessening the density of the atmosphere which the moon''s light traverses, shall I not render that light more intense?
12901	In order to be nearer the moon?
12901	In what way do you mean?
12901	Indeed?
12901	Is it because the cone of shade thrown by the earth does not extend beyond the moon?
12901	Is it believable? 12901 Is it clear?"
12901	Is it long since?
12901	Is it one of the corpuscles of space which our projectile holds in its radius of attraction, and which will accompany it as far as the moon?
12901	Is it possible?
12901	Is not infinitude large enough to allow a poor little bullet to go about without fear? 12901 Is there not an American name to put at the bottom of this discovery?"
12901	Is there nothing in its place?
12901	Just so,answered Nicholl;"but in what proportion do you reckon the diminution of speed by friction?"
12901	Michel,replied Barbicane,"do you think it possible to forge without a hammer, or to plough without a ploughshare?"
12901	Much noise?
12901	Need we blush for that? 12901 Never mind; what is his opinion?"
12901	Nor diminish its speed?
12901	Not even by lightening it like they lighten an overloaded ship?
12901	Not one shot?
12901	Nothing will stop you?
12901	Now do not be angry, worthy president,answered Michel,"but may not these black lines be regular rows of trees?"
12901	Now,said Elphinstone,"what thickness must we give its sides?"
12901	One question,said Elphinstone,"and will this_ canobusomortar_ be rifled?"
12901	Only thirteen minutes?
12901	Only what do you mean by crevices in the world of science?
12901	Or are we tranquilly resting on the soil of Florida?
12901	Or at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico?
12901	Perhaps you mean the telegraph- office?
12901	Philosophers like Plato, Aristotle, Descartes, and Kant?
12901	Poets like Homer, Virgil, Milton, Lamartine, and Hugo?
12901	Really?
12901	Really?
12901	Seriously?
12901	Shall we begin?
12901	Shall we get there?
12901	Since, what have we seen, after all? 12901 Snow?"
12901	Some one?
12901	Speak, ca n''t you?
12901	Suppose I go too?
12901	Suppose I had broken the mirror?
12901	That is evident,answered one of the officers,"but what has become of the travellers?
12901	That is evident,answered the major;"but what metal do you intend to employ for your own projectile?"
12901	That mountain is--?
12901	The moon?
12901	The question, therefore, comes to this:''Are the planets inhabitable?'' 12901 The telegraph- office?"
12901	The way to do what?
12901	Then how is it to be done?
12901	Then the cannon was pointed badly?
12901	Then the earth has two moons like Neptune?
12901	Then the vehicle pleases you?
12901	Then what must be done?
12901	Then why do you meddle with scientific questions which you have never studied?
12901	Then,asked Michel Ardan,"humanity has quite disappeared from the moon?"
12901	Then,asked Michel,"the moon is an older world than the earth?"
12901	Then,asked Nicholl,"what would happen if the earth were to be suddenly stopped in her movement of translation?"
12901	Then,resumed Michel Ardan,"would not this be an opportunity for making that experiment we could not attempt when we were bathed in the solar rays?"
12901	Then,resumed Michel,"I repeat-- why have they not done it?"
12901	Then,said Barbicane, without further preliminary,"you have decided to go?"
12901	Then,said Michel in a grumbling tone,"why is there any eclipse when there ought to be none?"
12901	Those fowls?
12901	Through whom? 12901 Too late?"
12901	True,replied Nicholl;"and who can say that the moon has always been the earth''s satellite?"
12901	Upon your word of honour?
12901	Very well, then, what do you mean to do?
12901	Very well,answered Michel;"but once more; how did they calculate the initial velocity?"
12901	Was that a cock?
12901	Well, Barbicane,then said Michel,"should you like to know what I think about why we have deviated?"
12901	Well, really, are we going on?
12901	Well, what do you make it?
12901	Well, what do you say to aluminium?
12901	Well,cried he,"but where''s the earth?"
12901	Well?
12901	Well?
12901	Well?
12901	Well?
12901	What Seminoles?
12901	What are the usual rules in such a case? 12901 What are they?"
12901	What are we looking at now?
12901	What are you driving at?
12901	What body?
12901	What can a few yards more or less matter? 12901 What can have become of them?"
12901	What can we throw out?
12901	What depth are we in?
12901	What do you make of that?
12901	What do you mean by that, Nicholl?
12901	What do you mean by that?
12901	What do you mean by the void?
12901	What do you mean, Barbicane?
12901	What do you mean?
12901	What do you mean?
12901	What do you say?
12901	What do you think about it, Barbicane?
12901	What do you think that plain is like, seen from the height we are at?
12901	What do you want?
12901	What does it matter?
12901	What does that matter? 12901 What does that matter?"
12901	What does that matter?
12901	What for?
12901	What have you found?
12901	What is it, then?
12901	What is it?
12901	What is its width?
12901	What is that?
12901	What is that?
12901	What is that?
12901	What is that?
12901	What is the matter now?
12901	What is the matter with you?
12901	What is the matter?
12901	What is the reason of this special arrangement?
12901	What is to be done?
12901	What next?
12901	What of that?
12901	What of that?
12901	What shall we do?
12901	What should it be if not a volcano?
12901	What should you say, then,answered Barbicane,"if the chances of our journey should take us towards the southern hemisphere?"
12901	What the matter is?
12901	What will be the thickness of the metal?
12901	What will become of us after we have reached the neutral point?
12901	What will prevent me delaying my fall by means of rockets conveniently placed and lighted at the proper time?
12901	What will the projectile weigh, then?
12901	What would be the use?
12901	What''s the matter with you?
12901	What?
12901	What?
12901	What?
12901	What?
12901	What?
12901	Whatever can that machine be?
12901	Whatever is that? 12901 When a projectile is hurled into space,"resumed Barbicane,"what happens?
12901	When?
12901	When?
12901	Where are they? 12901 Where are they?"
12901	Which means?
12901	Who are you?
12901	Who is it?
12901	Who is that, pray?
12901	Who knows?
12901	Who says there are no Selenites?
12901	Who says they have not done it?
12901	Who''ll buy real mint- julep in the latest style?
12901	Why do you not answer?
12901	Why is there no total eclipse?
12901	Why not? 12901 Why not?"
12901	Why not?
12901	Why not?
12901	Why should they not be the cracks caused by the shock of a bullet or a stone upon a pane of glass?
12901	Why should they?
12901	Why should we not arrive? 12901 Why should we not succeed?"
12901	Why so, if the weight on the surface of the moon is six times less than upon the surface of the earth?
12901	Why so?
12901	Why so?
12901	Why this qualification?
12901	Why, do n''t they use his skin to make drums of?
12901	Why, pray?
12901	Why, there might be something to do over there, and if they accepted our services--"What are you thinking of?
12901	Why,said Nicholl,"may not these rays be simply the spurs of the mountains reflecting the light of the sun more vividly?"
12901	Why,said he,"may not these inexplicable appearances be simply phenomena of vegetation?"
12901	Why?
12901	Why?
12901	Why?
12901	Why?
12901	Why?
12901	Why?
12901	Why?
12901	Why?
12901	Why?
12901	Why?
12901	Why?
12901	Why?
12901	Why?
12901	Will not our Columbiad be still there? 12901 Will not our muscular strength be diminished?"
12901	Will that be necessary?
12901	Will that be sufficient?
12901	Will you enter it to- morrow morning at five o''clock by one side?
12901	Will you have a receipt?
12901	With your hand?
12901	Would you like figures?
12901	Yes; and the Rodman Columbiad?
12901	You are Barbicane?
12901	You are certain of your figures?
12901	You are not going to take upon yourself the task of making the moon more luminous?
12901	You do not think of raising such a mass upon a gun- carriage?
12901	You wish to add a few words?
12901	_ Savants_ like Archimedes, Euclid, Pascal, and Newton?
12901	1,''Is it possible to send a projectile to the moon?''
12901	2,''What is the exact distance that separates the earth from her satellite?''
12901	4,''At what moment would the moon present the most favourable position for being reached by the projectile?''
12901	5,''At what point in the heavens ought the cannon destined to hurl the projectile be aimed?''
12901	6,''What place will the moon occupy In the heavens at the moment of the projectile''s departure?''
12901	A journey of 86,410 leagues, but what is that?
12901	After what they had seen, could the travellers solve it?
12901	And an hyperbola?"
12901	And if the man did exist was he not a madman who would have to be inclosed in a strait- waistcoat instead of in a cannon- ball?
12901	And is that the future that awaits us?"
12901	And now would this attempt, without precedent in the annals of travels, have any practical result?
12901	And was not the imaginative Michel right in thus interpreting the fancies of the old astronomers?
12901	And what is your parabola, if you please?"
12901	And what were his first words?
12901	And who says so, pray?"
12901	And yet who would affirm, who would dare to say, that the amiable fellow had not really seen what his two companions would not see?
12901	And yet, supposing the atmosphere to have taken refuge upon that face?
12901	And, may it please you, lieutenant, where are we now?"
12901	Another projectile?"
12901	Are those plains composed of dry sand, as the first astronomers believed?
12901	At 100 yards?
12901	At what moment would the moon present the most favourable position for being reached by the projectile?
12901	Barbicane, the president-- my best friend?"
12901	Besides, I shall astonish you--""Astonish us?"
12901	Besides, what could be easier?
12901	But did these adventurers of space complain?
12901	But even supposing that their bold enterprise were crowned with success, how would they return?
12901	But had that distance increased or diminished since they had been in the cone of shadow?
12901	But now I think--""What do you think?"
12901	But what becomes of the movement which animated it?
12901	But what was that speed compared to the one with which the three heroes had left the Columbiad?
12901	But what was the use of vain theories that could not be put in practice?
12901	But what would you say if I were going to Neptune, which gravitates at 1,147,000,000 leagues from the sun?
12901	But whence came the animation that grew visibly greater in the inhabitants of the projectile?
12901	But where will they take us to?"
12901	But who would have expected to find such a depth so near land, at 100 leagues only from the American coast?"
12901	But, first of all, did this personage really exist?
12901	But, now I think of it, why ca n''t we take a walk outside this?
12901	But,"asked Barbicane, insisting once more,"you have quite reflected?"
12901	By the force of impulsion?"
12901	By what means?"
12901	By- the- bye, Barbicane, have the Selenites any eclipses?"
12901	By- the- bye, what is the integral calculus?"
12901	Clouds, rain, tempests, humours, does the life of man contain aught but these?
12901	Could they conclude for or against?
12901	Could they ever return?
12901	Could they give a scientific affirmation to that observation so superficially obtained?
12901	Could they have closed their eyes so near to a new world?
12901	Dared they pronounce upon the question of its habitability after so slight a glimpse of the invisible disc?
12901	Did Barbicane, Nicholl, and Michel Ardan still breathe?
12901	Did I not bring you back to life?
12901	Did he not get talked of ceaselessly by the hundred voices of Fame, hoarse in his service?
12901	Did he not live in a glass house, taking the entire universe as confidant of his most intimate secrets?
12901	Did she resemble the earth in the time when the atmosphere did not yet exist?
12901	Did some body maintain it in the ether?
12901	Did the adversary of Michel Ardan''s theories hazard any further arguments?
12901	Do you believe in the influence of the moon upon maladies?"
12901	Do you know an Indian play called_ The Child''s Chariot_?"
12901	Do you know how long it would take an express train to reach the moon?
12901	Do you know it?"
12901	Do you know what I think of this universe that begins with the sun and ends at Neptune?
12901	Do you like that comparison better?"
12901	Do you say to yourself that this prison may be our coffin?
12901	Do you understand?"
12901	Does not the president''s shoulder still bleed from the blow?"
12901	Had its route again been modified by the meteor?
12901	Had she a Frenchman named Michel Ardan on board?"
12901	Had the ingenuity of the constructors of the projectile been attended by a happy result?
12901	Had the operation of casting succeeded?
12901	Had they been able to attempt some audacious manoeuvre to recover their liberty?
12901	Had they triumphed over the frightful impulsion of the initial velocity of 11,000 metres a second?
12901	Has it been inhabited?"
12901	Have we not been half stunned by the shock?
12901	Have you altered your projectile as I told you in my message?"
12901	He contented himself with saying simply--"Now, my friends, what quantity of powder do you propose?"
12901	He opened his eyes, sat up, took the hands of his two friends, and his first words were--"Nicholl, are we going on?"
12901	Her absence made Ardan say--"And the moon?
12901	How are you?
12901	How could he invent anything better than a Columbiad 900 feet long?
12901	How shall we do it?
12901	How was it that though the projectile had been so near the moon, within a distance of twenty- five miles, it had not fallen upon her?
12901	How were they to know, how calculate in the dark?
12901	How?
12901	I make appeal to this assembly and put it to the vote to know if life such as it exists upon earth is possible on the surface of the moon?"
12901	I therefore ask the honourable Commission if the moon is not habitable, has it been inhabited?"
12901	If an aëronaut were taken up that distance from the earth, what would he distinguish upon its surface?
12901	If he should perceive the projectile upon the mirror of his gigantic telescope what would he think?
12901	In another eighteen years will she not occupy exactly the same place that she occupies to- day?"
12901	In either of these alternatives what would be the travellers''fate?
12901	Is cotton and nitric acid wanting wherewith to manufacture the projectile?
12901	Is it likely?
12901	Is it possible to send a projectile to the moon?
12901	Is it possible?"
12901	Is not that your opinion, major?"
12901	Is not the Columbiad still lying in Floridian soil?
12901	Is she going to fail us?"
12901	Is that clear?"
12901	Is the moon habitable?
12901	Look here, without looking any farther for a motive for war, did not North America formerly belong to the English?"
12901	Maston ran to him crying--"Have you seen a man enter the wood armed with a rifle?
12901	Maston sent that unexpected announcement into the world?
12901	Maston, for instance-- had been able to get a glimpse of the interior of the projectile, what would he have seen?
12901	Maston,"shall we not employ these last years of our existence in perfecting firearms?
12901	Maston,"why should not England in its turn belong to the Americans?"
12901	Maston;"then our projectile will have a diameter of nine feet?"
12901	Now I suppose it is the moon you want to reach?"
12901	Now how can the emotion be described which took possession of the whole of America?
12901	Now if a ship can go where it pleases, or a balloon ascend where it pleases, why should not our projectile reach the goal it was aimed at?"
12901	Now were the green shades owing to tropical vegetation, kept up by a low and dense atmosphere?
12901	Now what happens in the act of respiration?
12901	Now, Barbicane, do you believe that the moon is an ancient comet?"
12901	Now, how do we know that this attraction was powerful enough to influence the movements of the moon at the epoch the earth was still fluid?"
12901	Or are they only immense forests, according to the opinion of Mr. Waren de la Rue, who grants a very low but very dense atmosphere to the moon?
12901	Ought a Frenchman and two Americans to recoil at such a word?"
12901	Populations, flocks of lunar animals, towns, lakes, and oceans?
12901	Shall it be a cannon, howitzer, or a mortar?"
12901	Should they not see the intense fulgurations of a burning mountain?
12901	Should you like to know my theory?
12901	Suppose that animals people these continents and seas?
12901	Suppose that man still lives under those conditions of habitability?
12901	Suppose that vegetation still persists there?
12901	Suppose that with the air water had given life to these regenerated continents?
12901	Suppose we had reached our goal, would it not have been better to find the continents in full daylight instead of dark night?
12901	The size of the projectile and length of the cannon being given, what would be the quantity of powder necessary to produce the impulsion?
12901	Then he had nothing more to fear from his adversary?"
12901	Then the atmosphere did give there its life- giving particles?
12901	Then turning the conversation--"Barbicane, do you know what I have been thinking about all night?"
12901	Then, exhausted by deceptions, treasons, infidelities, and all the procession of terrestrial miseries, what does he find at the end of his career?
12901	They could procure themselves air for two months; they had provisions for one year; but after?
12901	This, therefore, is the problem:--What thickness ought an iron obus to have in order to weigh only 20,000 lbs.?
12901	Very well?
12901	Was it an illusion, an error of the eyes, an optical deception?
12901	Was it carried along in the gloom across infinitude?
12901	Was it falling then?
12901	Was it fatigue of body and mind?
12901	Was it going farther away from or nearer to the disc?
12901	Was it possible to go to the aid of these bold inhabitants of the earth?
12901	Was its direction altered either under the influence of lunar attraction or under the action of some unknown orb?
12901	Was not Louisiana bought in 1803 from Napoleon for 16,000,000 of dollars?"
12901	Was the effect of the shock deadened, thanks to the springs, the four buffers, the water- cushions, and the movable partitions?
12901	Was the projectile nothing but a metal coffin carrying three corpses into space?
12901	Was the projectile under the influence of some strange force?
12901	Was this to be the_ dénouement_ of the great enterprise?
12901	Well, lieutenant, and what about those soundings?"
12901	Well, tell me, friend Barbicane, if at that epoch you had been his judge would you have condemned that robber?"
12901	Were not Texas and Florida both incorporated in the Union in 1845?"
12901	Were the travellers at last about to reach their desired goal?
12901	What answers could be made to_ savants_ who had looked into the dark depths of the amphitheatre of Pluto?
12901	What are these diameters compared to that of Clavius, which we are over in this moment?"
12901	What armour- plate could ever resist a projectile of 30,000 lbs.?
12901	What can be added to these figures, so eloquent in themselves?
12901	What can he be doing?"
12901	What did it contain-- the living or the dead?
12901	What did they distinguish across that distance which they could not estimate?
12901	What did we see?
12901	What do you mean by that?"
12901	What does it matter about hyperbola or parabola if they both carry us indefinitely into space?"
12901	What enlargement do you hope to obtain thus?"
12901	What geological phenomenon had caused those ardent beams?
12901	What had become of them?
12901	What had caused it?
12901	What had happened?
12901	What had happened?
12901	What happened during that week?
12901	What have they done?
12901	What have they seen?
12901	What inhabitant of the earth perceives the speed which carries him along at the rate of 68,000 miles an hour?
12901	What is the exact distance that separates the earth and her satellite?
12901	What kind of spectacle would her hidden hemisphere present to our terrestrial spheroid?
12901	What pen could describe it, what palette would be rich enough in colours to reproduce its magnificence?
12901	What place in the heavens will the moon occupy at the moment when the projectile will start?''
12901	What point in the heavens ought the cannon, destined to hurl the projectile, be aimed at?
12901	What probability could there be that any man should conceive the idea of such a journey?
12901	What velocity then animated the projectile?
12901	What was a fall of twelve leagues?
12901	What was he doing then?
12901	What was that pretentious globe which nearly knocked against us?"
12901	What was the astonishing firing at Jena or Austerlitz, which decided the fate of the battle?
12901	What was the cause of that singular intoxication, the consequences of which might prove so disastrous?
12901	What was the effect of the frightful shock?
12901	What was the origin of these shining rays running equally over plains and reliefs, however high?
12901	What was this radiating aureole?
12901	What were Barbicane and his companions doing whilst they were hastening to their succour?
12901	What will it be, therefore, when, with twenty times that speed, we shall hurl it with a rapidity of seven miles a second?
12901	What would become of these bold travellers in the most immediate future?
12901	What would happen then?
12901	What would they discover in the field of this telescope which magnified objects 48,000 times?
12901	Whatever is that wretched moon?"
12901	When did she leave Europe?
12901	Whence comes that oscillation?
12901	Where can they be?"
12901	Where is he hiding himself?"
12901	Where is the bullet?
12901	Where is the time when cannon awoke you every morning with its joyful reports?"
12901	Where was it going?
12901	Where were they at that moment, 8 a.m. during that day called upon earth the sixth of December?
12901	Where would the hazards of attraction have taken it?
12901	Where would the projectile be in another fortnight?
12901	Where would they have found a calmer or more peaceful place to sleep in?
12901	Which course ought he to decide upon?
12901	Who can tell the cause, reason, or justification of such cataclysms?"
12901	Who could have expected such an error in calculation?
12901	Who could predict the universal emotion then at its paroxysm?
12901	Who could say?
12901	Who knows whether the inhabitants of the other planets are not more advanced than the_ savants_ of the earth on the subject of their satellites?"
12901	Who would have imagined such a meeting of asteroids?
12901	Why are we not going towards it?"
12901	Why ca n''t we go into space through the port- light?
12901	Why did we not fasten a telegraph wire to our bullet?
12901	Why do they grease the axles of the wheels?
12901	Why should not this journey be accomplished one day or another?
12901	Why should the projectile of the Gun Club escape that natural arrangement?
12901	Will it never get cool?
12901	Will not a fresh opportunity present itself to try the ranges of our projectiles?
12901	Will not the moon again pass the zenith of Florida?
12901	Will that do?"
12901	Will the atmosphere be no longer illuminated by the lightning of our cannons?
12901	Will you please listen to me and spare objections for the present?
12901	Wo n''t France run down one of our steamers, or wo n''t England, in defiance of the rights of nations, hang up three or four of our countrymen?"
12901	Wo n''t some international difficulty crop up that will allow us to declare war against some transatlantic power?
12901	Would a service of navigation ever be founded across space for the solar world?
12901	Would direct communication ever be established with the moon?
12901	Would news of them ever reach the earth?
12901	Would not our first installation have been made under better circumstances?
12901	Would not those millions of spectators who had invaded the Floridian peninsula rush to meet the sublime adventurers?
12901	Would they pass it near enough to resolve certain problems in physics and geology until then unsolved?
12901	Yet what was to become of them amidst these infinite solitudes when air failed them?
12901	You all know that curious cellular matter which constitutes the elementary tissues of vegetables?"
12901	and is it not summed up in these four words?
12901	and what is ether?"
12901	answered Michel,"do you think they have had artists like Phidias, Michael Angelo, or Raphael?"
12901	asked Barbicane,"did you bring such trifles as those?"
12901	asked Michel Ardan,"do you mean to say that we are already beyond the terrestrial atmosphere?"
12901	asked Michel;"is it absolute void?"
12901	comets?"
12901	cried Ardan,"that thin streak, that silvery crescent?"
12901	cried Michel Ardan,"upon the moon?"
12901	cried Michel, jumping a yard high--"why?
12901	exclaimed the captain,"what have you come here for, sir?"
12901	have I any time to lose?
12901	how do we know we were not wiser then?"
12901	it cried,"are we not as American as you?
12901	murmured the president;"why did we not hear the detonation?"
12901	now I think of it, now that all our anxieties are over, what will become of us?
12901	through what?"
12901	water?"
12901	when these craters vomited torrents of lava and stones, with clouds of smoke and sheets of flame?
12901	why?"
12901	you will not open the doors of the inclosure to all comers?"
