No it doesn't have to have anything to do with space. Science fiction basically means that it maybe could happen with future technology, but nowadays is impossible. Although Star Wars and stuff are Science Fiction, you don't have to have a space theme. Hope this helps!! :)

What is the first known piece of literature that could be considered to be of the science fiction genre?

The genre developed over time. Greeks had stories about supernatural beings, and in the second century, there were satires written about a hero who goes to the moon. In the 1500s, the age of exploration began, and science became more real. Kepler in 1634 imagined living on the moon. Francis Bacon published used fiction to explain his scientific theory in 1624. One of the most famous science fiction stories is Gulliver's Travels in 1726. So, as with many things science fiction, it evolved with people adding to it through the centuries.Another perspective: I consider the legends of Daedalus to be rather obvious examples of gadgetry science fiction. Also there are some stories dating back to the Bronze Age.
