+The War of the Worlds
+
+by H. G. Wells [1898]
+
+
+ But who shall dwell in these worlds if they be
+ inhabited? . . . Are we or they Lords of the
+ World? . . . And how are all things made for man?--
+ KEPLER (quoted in The Anatomy of Melancholy)
+
+CHAPTER ONE
+
+THE EVE OF THE WAR
+
+
+No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth
+century that this world was being watched keenly and closely by
+intelligences greater than man's and yet as mortal as his own; that as
+men busied themselves about their various concerns they were
+scrutinised and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a
+microscope might scrutinise the transient creatures that swarm and
+multiply in a drop of water. With infinite complacency men went to
+and fro over this globe about their little affairs, serene in their
+assurance of their empire over matter. It is possible that the
+infusoria under the microscope do the same. No one gave a thought to
+the older worlds of space as sources of human danger, or thought of
+them only to dismiss the idea of life upon them as impossible or
+improbable. It is curious to recall some of the mental habits of
+those departed days. At most terrestrial men fancied there might be
+other men upon Mars, perhaps inferior to themselves and ready to
+welcome a missionary enterprise. Yet across the gulf of space, minds
+that are to our minds as ours are to those of the beasts that perish,
+intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic, regarded this earth with
+envious eyes, and slowly and surely drew their plans against us. And
+early in the twentieth century came the great disillusionment.
+
+The planet Mars, I scarcely need remind the reader, revolves about the
+sun at a mean distance of 140,000,000 miles, and the light and heat it
+receives from the sun is barely half of that received by this world.
+It must be, if the nebular hypothesis has any truth, older than our
+world; and long before this earth ceased to be molten, life upon its
+surface must have begun its course. The fact that it is scarcely one
+seventh of the volume of the earth must have accelerated its cooling
+to the temperature at which life could begin. It has air and water
+and all that is necessary for the support of animated existence.
+
+Yet so vain is man, and so blinded by his vanity, that no writer,
+up to the very end of the nineteenth century, expressed any idea that
+intelligent life might have developed there far, or indeed at all,
+beyond its earthly level. Nor was it generally understood that since
+Mars is older than our earth, with scarcely a quarter of the
+superficial area and remoter from the sun, it necessarily follows that
+it is not only more distant from time's beginning but nearer its end.
+
+The secular cooling that must someday overtake our planet has
+already gone far indeed with our neighbour. Its physical condition is
+still largely a mystery, but we know now that even in its equatorial
+region the midday temperature barely approaches that of our coldest
+winter. Its air is much more attenuated than ours, its oceans have
+shrunk until they cover but a third of its surface, and as its slow
+seasons change huge snowcaps gather and melt about either pole and
+periodically inundate its temperate zones. That last stage of
+exhaustion, which to us is still incredibly remote, has become a
+present-day problem for the inhabitants of Mars. The immediate
+pressure of necessity has brightened their intellects, enlarged their
+powers, and hardened their hearts. And looking across space with
+instruments, and intelligences such as we have scarcely dreamed of,
+they see, at its nearest distance only 35,000,000 of miles sunward of
+them, a morning star of hope, our own warmer planet, green with
+vegetation and grey with water, with a cloudy atmosphere eloquent of
+fertility, with glimpses through its drifting cloud wisps of broad
+stretches of populous country and narrow, navy-crowded seas.
+
+And we men, the creatures who inhabit this earth, must be to them
+at least as alien and lowly as are the monkeys and lemurs to us. The
+intellectual side of man already admits that life is an incessant
+struggle for existence, and it would seem that this too is the belief
+of the minds upon Mars. Their world is far gone in its cooling and
+this world is still crowded with life, but crowded only with what they
+regard as inferior animals. To carry warfare sunward is, indeed,
+their only escape from the destruction that, generation after
+generation, creeps upon them.
+
+And before we judge of them too harshly we must remember what
+ruthless and utter destruction our own species has wrought, not only
+upon animals, such as the vanished bison and the dodo, but upon its
+inferior races. The Tasmanians, in spite of their human likeness,
+were entirely swept out of existence in a war of extermination waged
+by European immigrants, in the space of fifty years. Are we such
+apostles of mercy as to complain if the Martians warred in the same
+spirit?
+
+The Martians seem to have calculated their descent with amazing
+subtlety--their mathematical learning is evidently far in excess of
+ours--and to have carried out their preparations with a well-nigh
+perfect unanimity. Had our instruments permitted it, we might have
+seen the gathering trouble far back in the nineteenth century. Men
+like Schiaparelli watched the red planet--it is odd, by-the-bye, that
+for countless centuries Mars has been the star of war--but failed to
+interpret the fluctuating appearances of the markings they mapped so
+well. All that time the Martians must have been getting ready.
+
+During the opposition of 1894 a great light was seen on the
+illuminated part of the disk, first at the Lick Observatory, then by
+Perrotin of Nice, and then by other observers. English readers heard
+of it first in the issue of _Nature_ dated August 2. I am inclined to
+think that this blaze may have been the casting of the huge gun, in
+the vast pit sunk into their planet, from which their shots were fired
+at us. Peculiar markings, as yet unexplained, were seen near the site
+of that outbreak during the next two oppositions.
+
+The storm burst upon us six years ago now. As Mars approached
+opposition, Lavelle of Java set the wires of the astronomical exchange
+palpitating with the amazing intelligence of a huge outbreak of
+incandescent gas upon the planet. It had occurred towards midnight of
+the twelfth; and the spectroscope, to which he had at once resorted,
+indicated a mass of flaming gas, chiefly hydrogen, moving with an
+enormous velocity towards this earth. This jet of fire had become
+invisible about a quarter past twelve. He compared it to a colossal
+puff of flame suddenly and violently squirted out of the planet, "as
+flaming gases rushed out of a gun."
+
+A singularly appropriate phrase it proved. Yet the next day there
+was nothing of this in the papers except a little note in the _Daily
+Telegraph_, and the world went in ignorance of one of the gravest
+dangers that ever threatened the human race. I might not have heard of
+the eruption at all had I not met Ogilvy, the well-known astronomer,
+at Ottershaw. He was immensely excited at the news, and in the excess
+of his feelings invited me up to take a turn with him that night in a
+scrutiny of the red planet.
+
+In spite of all that has happened since, I still remember that
+vigil very distinctly: the black and silent observatory, the shadowed
+lantern throwing a feeble glow upon the floor in the corner, the
+steady ticking of the clockwork of the telescope, the little slit in
+the roof--an oblong profundity with the stardust streaked across it.
+Ogilvy moved about, invisible but audible. Looking through the
+telescope, one saw a circle of deep blue and the little round planet
+swimming in the field. It seemed such a little thing, so bright and
+small and still, faintly marked with transverse stripes, and slightly
+flattened from the perfect round. But so little it was, so silvery
+warm--a pin's-head of light! It was as if it quivered, but really this
+was the telescope vibrating with the activity of the clockwork that
+kept the planet in view.
+
+As I watched, the planet seemed to grow larger and smaller and to
+advance and recede, but that was simply that my eye was tired. Forty
+millions of miles it was from us--more than forty millions of miles of
+void. Few people realise the immensity of vacancy in which the dust
+of the material universe swims.
+
+Near it in the field, I remember, were three faint points of light,
+three telescopic stars infinitely remote, and all around it was the
+unfathomable darkness of empty space. You know how that blackness
+looks on a frosty starlight night. In a telescope it seems far
+profounder. And invisible to me because it was so remote and small,
+flying swiftly and steadily towards me across that incredible
+distance, drawing nearer every minute by so many thousands of miles,
+came the Thing they were sending us, the Thing that was to bring so
+much struggle and calamity and death to the earth. I never dreamed of
+it then as I watched; no one on earth dreamed of that unerring
+missile.
+
+That night, too, there was another jetting out of gas from the
+distant planet. I saw it. A reddish flash at the edge, the slightest
+projection of the outline just as the chronometer struck midnight; and
+at that I told Ogilvy and he took my place. The night was warm and I
+was thirsty, and I went stretching my legs clumsily and feeling my way
+in the darkness, to the little table where the siphon stood, while
+Ogilvy exclaimed at the streamer of gas that came out towards us.
+
+That night another invisible missile started on its way to the
+earth from Mars, just a second or so under twenty-four hours after the
+first one. I remember how I sat on the table there in the blackness,
+with patches of green and crimson swimming before my eyes. I wished I
+had a light to smoke by, little suspecting the meaning of the minute
+gleam I had seen and all that it would presently bring me. Ogilvy
+watched till one, and then gave it up; and we lit the lantern and
+walked over to his house.
