[00:00.0] No one would have believed,
[00:01.93] in the last years of the nineteenth century,
[00:04.53] that human affairs were being watched from the timeless worlds of space.
[00:09.27] No one could have dreamed that we were being scrutinised as someone with a microscope studies creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water.
[00:18.0] Few men even considered the possibility of life on other planets.
[00:22.18] And yet, across the gulf of space,
[00:25.53] minds immeasurably superior to ours regarded this earth with envious eyes,
[00:32.24] and slowly, and surely, they drew their plans against us...
[04:52.29] At midnight, on the 12th of August,
[04:54.30] a huge mass of luminous green gas erupted from Mars and sped towards Earth.
[04:59.25] Across two hundred million miles of void,
[05:02.24] invisibly hurtling towards us, came the first of the missiles that were to bring so much calamity to Earth.
[05:08.93] As I watched, there was another jet of gas.
[05:11.83] It was another missile, starting on its way...
[05:46.35] And that's how it was for the next ten nights.
[05:49.73] A flare, spurting out from Mars.
[05:52.15] Bright green, drawing a green mist behind it; a beautiful, but somehow disturbing sight.
[05:59.71] Ogilvy, the astronomer, assured me we were in no danger.
[06:03.93] He was convinced there could be no living thing on that remote, forbidding planet...
[06:11.62] The chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one, he said
[06:20.94] The chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one...
[06:27.42] But still, they come!
[06:31.58] Then came the night the first missile approached Earth.
[06:34.13] It was thought to be an ordinary falling star,
[06:36.75] but the next day there was a huge crater in the middle of the Common,
[06:39.95] and Ogilvy came to examine what lay there.
[06:42.84] A cylinder, thirty yards across, glowing hot, and with faint sounds of movement coming from within.
[06:50.82] Suddenly the top began moving, rotating, unscrewing, and Ogilvy feared there was a man inside trying to escape.
[06:59.62] He rushed to the cylinder but the intense heat stopped him before he could burn himself on the metal...
[07:05.40] The chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one, he said
[07:14.59] The chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one...
[07:20.99] But still, they come!
[07:25.64] Yes, the chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one, he said
[07:35.54] The chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one...
[07:42.1] But still, they come!
[08:33.65] It seems totally incredible to me now that everyone spent that evening as though it were just like any other.
[08:47.53] From the railway station came the sound of shunting trains, ringing and rumbling, softened almost into melody by the distance.
[09:01.39] It all seemed so safe and tranquil...
