the outset of the story‚ the main character Mr. Bittering hesitates embracing Mars and its environment‚ showing his apprehension upon landing. Bittering recognizes the desperate circumstances as “sweat poured from his hands and his face and his body; he was drenched in the hotness of his fear” (p. 237).

Have you ever wanted to live on the Moon‚ or Mars? Well I’m going to explain why this is a bad idea. Our technology isn’t advanced enough to let you travel planet to planet at a low cost making space travel very expensive.

In the newspaper article "Can You Own Land in Outer Space" by Teresa Anjou‚ it talks about a treaty involving hundreds of countries

“Intelligence on Mars” relates to the scene The War of The Worlds by speaking upon evolution. The main point of both of these readings is that Martians and differently evolved than humans. The narrator describes the Martian as “A big grayish rounded bulk‚the size perhaps‚ of a bear”(54). To a human‚ a “bear” is a wild animal that is very dangerous. I believe that the author made this comparison to state that the humans will fear the Martians as they would a bear. Wells state’s “ creatures on Mars would be

Exploration; to travel in a little-known region for discovery‚ as defined by Webster. Since the age of the Greeks‚ Anglo-Saxons have been interested in space exploration.
