moon voyage
Trip to satellite
A moon voyage is a journey to the moon, whether actual or imagined.
The term evokes both the Apollo missions of the 1960s and 70s and earlier fictional accounts like Jules Verne's.
Scientists are planning the first crewed moon voyage in fifty years.
The phrase carries a slightly romantic or literary quality compared to the more technical "lunar mission."
