  • Insectoid aliens who live on the Moon.
  • The Selenites are the inhabitants of the Moon. They are a humanoid, alien species. They tumbled around a lot, and could be easily defeated by whacking them, which would cause them to disappear in a puff of smoke. As depicted in Le Voyage dans la Lune, they seem to be very light, tumbly creatures. They seem to be ruled by a monarchy.
  • Shortly after arriving on the Moon on a cannon-launched capsule, a group of astronomers are accosted by a Selenite. After a brief struggle, they discover the aliens have a glaring weakness...they explode if struck with a hard object. More Selenites appear, and soon, the astronomers are overwhelmed by their numbers.

  • Insectoid aliens who live on the Moon.
  • Shortly after arriving on the Moon on a cannon-launched capsule, a group of astronomers are accosted by a Selenite. After a brief struggle, they discover the aliens have a glaring weakness...they explode if struck with a hard object. More Selenites appear, and soon, the astronomers are overwhelmed by their numbers. Taken captive, the explorers are hauled before the Selenite King. However, one of the group breaks free and kills the king by tossing him to the ground. The men flee, pursued by the other Selenites. The astronomers return to their capsule, which they push over a cliff to fall back to Earth. A Selenite attempts to stop them by grabbing onto the capsule, but is instead taken to Earth.
