   Three years later, World War I broke out, and devastated a generation, which sowed the seeds of World War II.

   It’s amazing how long people believed that Mars was inhabited. It wasn’t until the Mariner 4 spacecraft returned images taken on 15 July 1965 showing craters and no canals that the belief in a populated Mars was finally crushed.

   They were first ‘observed’ by Giovanni Schiaparelli in 1877 so it took 88 years to discover the truth.

   It must’ve been true since NYT is the paper of record. They are always right left.

   Either those canals got built faster than he thought, or the defect in his telescope lens was grower faster than he thought..

   Poor Martians. They obviously continued using fossil fuels and didn’t control their CO2 emissions, and got wiped out by global warming, which made Mars very cold.
