I primi uomini sulla luna

The story subtly critiques imperialism while taking readers on a fantastic journey. I'm curious whether Wells intended this commentary from the start or if it developed over time.

Their society and behavior added depth beyond just alien stereotypes. Was this a reflection of Wells's views on human nature or just creative world-building?

The book was written over a century ago, but its commentary feels surprisingly relevant. Does this make it more impactful or feel a bit dated?
