In the 2nd Century, a Syrian-Greek named Lucian wrote what is now considered the first science fiction novel. The book, titled humorously A True Story, deals with travels through outer space and visits to alien worlds.. Lucian parodied the works of his contemporary authors and politicians, in an imaginative satire.
Read a little bit. It's really quite good:
