Description

While stories of speculative fiction had been previously published in American magazines, including H.G. Wells’ War of the Worlds, introduced in Cosmopolitan in 1897, this “scientific fiction number” is considered to be the first science-fiction magazine, in which Hugo Gernsback coined the term.
