There is no hard science in it, although Lewis does an admirable job in imagining the voyage through the heavens, where the travellers are bathed in the pure light of the sun, as opposed to the “dark” outer space the main character, Ransom, had previously imagined. ![]() It contains the elements of classic science fiction – a voyage in space to another world (Malacandra), an encounter with an alien species. This is probably best classified as science fiction, or perhaps pulp science fiction, if you want to get technical. Kinda misleading – those circle-things aren’t in the book at all! ![]()
