Heaven help us: busy Martians

The Times Machine is broken today and we have found ourselves stalled in the most awful year of 1915, when the world was truly coming to an end, for some.

This curious article about the 'artificial' canals on Mars seems to peter out from exhaustion. Also the headline does not warn of the startling blow to come: the Martian canals are not ancient! There seem to be new canals, and recently repaired canals as well.

For me it wouldn't be so much a fear of having an enemy planet. It's more to do with the verse from Psalm 8:5, about mankind. "For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour."

To be plain, I mean that I would feel a nervous jealousy, wondering just how much glory and honor these dern aliens have compared to us.
