Resumo
"Robur, o Conquistador" by Jules Verne introduces the enigmatic and brilliant engineer Robur, who challenges the conventional views on flight held by Philadelphia's Weldon Institute.
As strange aerial phenomena perplex the world, Robur advocates for heavier-than-air machines, a concept far ahead of his era.
The novel interweaves scientific innovation, thrilling adventure, and the conflict between established ideas and revolutionary vision, as Robur demonstrates the capabilities of his advanced flying machine, the "Albatross," in his quest to conquer the skies.
