Personal
I read this book to better familiarize myself with early science fiction. I finished it in 2015, and found it to be meh.
Status
This book is in the public domain. I don't own a physical copy, but have listened to an audio book recording.
Review
I found this to be quite dry. Also, since modern science has long since shown the entire story to be impossible, it requires a great suspension of disbelief to accept.
