The Return of the Murians by Nat Schachner:
Science Fiction Inventions, Technology and Ideas
"THE SPACE VESSEL was traveling swiftly. Behind it
stretched the vast, frightening
reaches of interstellar space...
"Five thousand years, in which they
lived and died and propagated; five
thousand years without sight or sign
of solid ground or the fresh, keen winds
of heaven, without, snow or rain or
mountains or oceans. "Night” and
“day” were words whose meanings were
long forgotten.
"They were born into a gleaming round
of metal and the circumscribed depths
of the eternal void..."

('The Return of the Murians' by Nat Schachner)
