Part 1/8:
The Martian Invasion: A Tale of Destruction and Resilience
In a chilling narrative that unfolds amidst the eerie red landscape of Mars, a massive explosion launches the first Martian sphere into the cold void of space. This catastrophic event does not go unnoticed; across the Atlantic in England, a young couple, Amy and George, gazes through their neighbor Ogilvy's telescope, witnessing the plume of smoke igniting their curiosity and fear.
Emboldened by their discovery, they compare it to earlier sightings from 1894 and 1898. Their neighbor, Ogilvy, graciously gifts them a photo of Mars, ultimately welcoming them into his community—yet their new neighbors seem far less hospitable.
