From Phileas Fogg to Yuri Gagarin:... Prologue: “ … Has the world grown smaller? Certainly, returned Ralph. I agree with Mr. Fogg. The world has grown smaller, since a man can now go round it ten times more quickly than a hundred years ago. … You have a strange way, Ralph, of proving that the world has grown smaller. So, because you can go round it in three months. In eighty days, interrupted Phileas Fogg. … It's absurd! cried Stuart, who was beginning to be annoyed at the persistency of his friend.” Jules Verne, Around the World in Eighty Days, 1873 © Kari Liuhto , Moscow
