> That's like saying that Lumiere brothers invented space travel - they too had the idea of flying to the Moon in a gun projectile ...

Just to nitpick, it was Jules Verne's idea. The Lumieres just put it on screen.

Just to add more nitpick to the nitpicking, it's a Georges Meliès movie: A trip to the moon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Trip_to_the_Moon

You are right, of course. I had Meliès in mind, not sure why I wrote Lumiere brothers.
