ответ: War of the Worlds. Wells Herbert WAR OF THE WORLDS Roman (1896) In 1877, the Italian astronomer Giovanni Virgino Schiaparelli discovered a network of straight lines on Mars, which he called channels. A hypothesis arose that these canals are artificial structures. This point of view was later refuted, but during her lifetime Schiaparelli enjoyed widespread acceptance. And from here the thought of the habitability of this planet logically followed. Of course, something contradicted her. Mars is older than the Earth, farther from the Sun, and if life on it began earlier, it is already nearing its end. The average daily temperature in the equatorial zone is not higher than ours in the coldest weather, the atmosphere is very rarefied, and huge masses of ice accumulate at the poles. But does it not follow from this that during the existence of Mars, they have developed a technique incomparable with the earthly technology and, at the same time, the desire to move to another, more convenient planet for life? At first, Wells seems to be a kind of follower of Jules Verne, a kind of "technical science fiction". The Martians brought new principles of science and technology to Earth. Their combat tripods, walking at the speed of a bird, their heat and light rays, their gas attacks, the ability to use articular rather than wheeled devices, to which engineers of future generations came, are the forerunners of robotics. Aircraft heavier than air were just being planned, and Wells's Martians are already building their own aircraft. Wells' one more prediction is chimerical. The Martians look like an intelligent tadpole, equipped with bundles of tentacles. They are more likely a product of terrestrial rather than extraterrestrial civilization. And in the eyes of a modern person, they are disgusting. Moreover, the Martians feed on the blood of creatures that resemble the current inhabitants of the Earth. This is one of the main reasons for their expansion. The action begins with the fall of the first cylinder of the Martians unscrewing from the inside. People dream of establishing contact with aliens. However, the Martians have very different plans. They need to subjugate the Earth, and from the very beginning they behave extremely aggressively, suppressing the very first centers of possible resistance. Artillery batteries aimed at them were destroyed by a heat ray. The government is still able to urge the population to leave London, after which its functions are completely exhausted. There is no longer any social order. A mass exodus of the population from the world's largest city begins. Marauders are rampaging. People who are not subject to a more external discipline show themselves as they are.
