第一次世界大战是人类有史以来第一次 In the first world war and for the first time in the history of man,
两群国家集团 用当时最先进的武器相互对抗 nations combined to fight against nations, using the crude weapons of those days.
二战则把地球上的每个大洲都卷入了战争 The second world war involved every continent on the globe,
人们转向科学 以开发新的战争设备 and men turned to science for new devices of warfare,
这些武器的毁灭性达到了史无前例的高峰 which reached an unparalleled peak in their capacity for destruction.
现在 一场和能威胁全人类与全部生物的 And now, fought with the terrible weapons of superscience,
超科学武器展开的战斗 即将开始 menacing all mankind and every creature on earth, comes...
没人会相信 在20世纪中期 No one would have believed in the middle of the 20th century
一个比人类更高级的文明正在密切地 that human affairs were being watched keenly and closely
监视着人类的状况 by intelligences greater than man's.
然而 在火星上的太空鸿沟中 Yet... across the gulf of space on the planet Mars,
大量冷酷 冷漠的智慧生命 intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic
正用羡慕的目光注视着我们的地球 regarded our earth with envious eyes,
并缓慢而坚定地制定着针对我们的计划 slowly and surely drawing their plans against us.
火星和太阳的距离超过一亿四千万英里 Mars is more than 140 million miles from the sun,
约合2.25亿公里
在几世纪以来 它一直慢慢走向衰亡 and for centuries, it has been in the last stages of exhaustion.
那里的夜晚 即使在赤道上 温度也远低于零度 At night, temperatures drop far below zero, even at its equator.
这个垂死星球上的居民使用着那些 The inhabitants of this dying planet looked across space
我们做梦都想不到的仪器和智慧眺望太空 with instruments and intelligences of which we have scarcely dreamed,
寻找可以让他们迁徙的另一个世界 searching for another world to which they could migrate.
他们不能去冥王星 那里是行星的最外层 They could not go to Pluto, outermost of all the planets
而且冷得连地表的大气都结成冰了 and so cold that its atmosphere lies frozen on its surface.
他们也不能在天王星和海王星 They couldn't go to Neptune or Uranus,
那里永远都是黑夜 而且冰冷彻骨 twin worlds in eternal night and perpetual cold,
它们的大气都由甲烷和氨蒸气构成 令人无法呼吸 both surrounded by an unbreathable atmosphere of methane gas and ammonia vapor.
火星人考虑过土星 The Martians considered Saturn,
觉得那里很有吸引力 有许多卫星和美丽的宇宙尘埃环 an attractive world with its many moons and beautiful rings of cosmic dust,
但那里的温度接近零下270度 but its temperature is close to 270 degrees below zero,
还有1.5万英里厚的冰层 and ice lies 15,000 miles deep on its surface.
约合2.4万公里
他们最近的世界是巨大的木星 Their nearest world was giant Jupiter,
地表有熔岩和冰块构成的巨崖 顶端覆盖着不断燃烧的氢气 where there are titanic cliffs of lava and ice with hydrogen flaming at the tops,
大气压力高得可怕 where the atmospheric pressure is terrible,
每平方寸高达数千磅 thousands of pounds to the square inch.
他们去不了那里 They couldn't go there.
他们也去不了离太阳最近的水星 Nor could they go to Mercury, nearest planet to the sun.
那里没有空气 It has no air,
赤道的温度甚至可以把铅融化 and the temperature at its equator, is that of molten lead.
在火星上智慧生命可以看到和研究的所有世界中 Of all the worlds that the intelligences on Mars could see and study,
只有我们温暖的地球有绿色的植被 only our own warm earth was green with vegetation,
亮亮的水 bright with water,
大气层为生命的繁衍提供屏障 and possessed a cloudy atmosphere eloquent of fertility.
人类还没有意识到 自己的命运将面临突然的威胁 It did not occur to mankind that a swift fate might be hanging over us,
也没有想到在深邃的外太空 有人在监视 研究我们 or that from the blackness of outer space, we were being scrutinized... and studied.
直到一个愉快的夏天 地球来到和火星最接近的位置 Until the time of our nearest approach to the orbit of Mars during a pleasant summer season...
那是个火球还是什么 Is that a fireball or somethin'?
老天 它可真大 Boy, that's big!
也许是颗彗星 Maybe it's a comet.
它会落在哪儿呢 Wonder where it lit?
我赌在几公里外 Miles away, I bet you.
我们去找找它吧 Hey, let's go find it.
估计是到波莫纳一半的路程 That probably dropped halfway to Pomona.
啊 那还挺近的 Oh, it was nearer than that.
我要去 谁跟我一起 I'm gonna see. Who's comin'?
这里是松峰顶 我看到冒烟了 This is Pine Summit. I got a smoke.
160 30 One-sixty, thirty.
方位角读数 160度30分 Azimuth reading, 160 degrees, 30 minutes.
大吗 我敢说它比我在加州见到的任何东西都大 Big? I'll bet it's as big as anything that ever lit in California.
最好快点派人去处理 它已经冒出火光了 You better get something over there. It's started a blaze already.
到这儿来 这里 Over here. This way.
你去那儿 拿着铲子 You there, with the shovel!
让我进去 Let me get in there!
给我让开 Out of the way!
把那根软管拿过来 Bring that hose over here.
伙计们 它已经开始是松了 继续 We're gettin' it licked, fellas. Keep at it.
嘿 抓住这个 Hey, grab this.
乔 乔 过来帮个忙 Joe, Joe, lend a hand over here.
三号回报行动中心 三号回报行动中心 Number 3 to DO. Number 3 to DO.
行动中心接通三号 请讲 DO to Number 3, come in.
火势已经被控制了 不需要增援了 完毕 We're getting this under control. We won't need anymore help. Over.
好 我们派水箱车进场 Okay. Send the tanker in,
你们必须在现场待命 直到火场完全冷却 完毕 but you can stand by until that thing cools off. Over.
我觉得应该有人来查查 这到底是什么情况 完毕 I think somebody ought to check on it. Over.
有几个人正在松峰顶钓鱼 他们可能是科学家 Well, there's some fellows fishing at Pine Summit, I think they're scientists.
他们可能看到彗星坠落 我会通知他们的 它长什么样子 They probably saw it come down. I'll let them know. What's it look like?
现场温度太高 无法靠近细看 Can't get near enough to see it very well. It's too hot.
但它就像一头鲸鱼大 But it's a whale of a size.
我收到你的消息了 I got a message for you.
你们是太平洋科技院的人吧 You're the guys from Pacific Tech, ain't you?
是的 Right.
看来钓鱼的收获不错 Looks like the fishing was good.
吃点吗 Have some?
恭敬不如从命了 Well, I might just do that.
我是来谈那个流星的事的 It's about that meteor.
他们说那玩意特别得大 They say it's a Whopper.
地区官员在山顶的瞭望台给我们打电话 The district officer phoned us at the lookout up on the summit.
我觉得你们会感兴趣的 I thought you might be interested.
途径琳达罗莎过去 距离也就10到12英里 It's about 10 or 12 Miles from here, over by Linda Rosa.
确定是流星吗 我看它落下来的样子不像 Are they sure it's a meteor? It didn't come down like one.
没错 它就像是被喷下来的 That's right. Came down in kind of spurts, didn't it?
那么 你们就得把它搞清楚 Well, you fellas will have to figure it out.
你们是科学家 You're scientists.
我只知道它像个房子那么大 又红又热 All I know is, they say it's as big as a house and practically red hot.
我想借你的车 明天早上看一下 I'd like to borrow your car and take a look at it in the morning.
我们应该回去 我可以坐你的飞机到比尔德贝克 We ought to get back. I can fly Bilderbeck down in your plane.
好 保险已经付了 Okay. The insurance is paid up.
要火吗 Light?
不了 我一会儿再抽 No. I'll smoke it later.
你看到它坠落了吗 Did you watch it come down?
我从窗户外看到的 I seen it from my window.
哈罗德 哈罗德 你看一下这里 Harold. Harold. Look here a minute.
稍微向左走一步 握住它 笑一个 Step over to your left just a little and hold it. Smile.
它肯定是撞到了那里 然后沿着这个沟滑过去的 It must've hit way up there and then skidded along the gully.
它停下后 上面所有松散的泥土和之类的都被晃下来了 After it stopped, all that loose earth and stuff shook down over it.
不好意思 Excuse me.
我猜大部分都被埋在土里了 I guess most of it's buried.
很容易埋到12英尺厚 也许更多 That's 12 feet thick, easy. Maybe more.
流星往往都很重 Meteors always run heavy.
他们都没法把它拖到哪家博物馆去 They won't be able to haul this one away to no museum.
这倒是挺吸引周日车手的 It'll be a real good attraction for Sunday drivers.
比狮子农场或蛇坑好一些 至少我们不用喂它 Better than a lion farm or a snake pit. We won't have to feed it.
是啊 我们还可以卖玉米粉蒸肉 辣酱玉米饼馅和热狗 Sure. We can sell tamales and enchiladas and hot dogs, too!
对 冰淇淋 冷饮 纪念品 Yeah! Ice cream, cold drinks, souvenirs.
我们应该放几张野餐桌 I think we should put up a few picnic tables.
不 不 那样他们就会自带午餐了 No, no. Then they'd bring their own lunches.
你想干什么 贝克 What's the idea, Buck?
去挖金子吗 Gonna dig for gold?
你在开什么玩笑 You think you're kiddin'?
说得好像后院里有座金矿一样 It's gonna be like having a gold mine in our own backyard.
我得靠近点仔细看看 I'm gonna get a closer look at it.
你觉得它很坚硬吗 Reckon it's solid all through?
还好它没有掉在镇子中央 Lucky it didn't come down in the middle of town!
真想知道这会算作谁的财产 Wonder who owns this property.
就在那边 That's it over there.
还他妈那么烫 Still pretty darn hot!
你要用铲子干什么 What's the idea of the shovel?
小心点 贝克 注意点 贝克 Be careful, Buck. Yeah, watch it, Buck.
小心 贝克 兄弟 Easy, Buck, man.
我猜它还是很烫 I guess it's pretty hot there.
你看到它掉下来了吗 Did you see it come down?
是的 我正在山上钓鱼 Yes. I was fishing up in the hills.
你用这么多家伙肯定能抓到不少 You must've caught plenty with all that tackle.
啊 我们本来是三个人钓鱼的 他们坐飞机两个先走了 Oh, there were three of us. The others flew back in my plane.
我不懂 这么大的陨石为什么只砸出这么小的坑 I don't understand why a meteor that size didn't make a bigger crater.
噢 它撞到了人行道 然后滑过来的 Oh, it hit sideways and skidded in.
我是这么想的 我也不确定 At least that's what I think. I don't really know.
有一个科学家要来 他会告诉我们这是怎么回事 But the ranger said a scientist is coming from Pacific Tech. He'll tell us.
克莱顿·佛瑞斯特 你听说过他吗 Clayton Forrester. Ever hear of him?
那家伙打算干嘛 把它挖出来吗 What's that fellow trying to do over there, dig it out?
他是太空和核子物理顶尖科学家 He's top man in astro- and nuclear physics.
他知道关于流星的一切 He knows all about meteors.
看起来你很了解他嘛 You seem to know all about him.
当然 我的硕士论文就是关于现代科学家的 Well, I did a thesis on modern scientists, working for my masters degree.
这篇论文对你有帮助吗 Did it do you any good?
当然 我拿到硕士学位了 Why, sure. I got it.
请问 你有火柴吗 Say, do you have a match?
没有 抱歉 我不抽烟 No. I'm sorry. I don't smoke.
佛瑞斯特是新原子引擎的幕后英雄 Forrester's the man behind the new atomic engines.
时代杂志都用他做封面 They had him on the cover of Time.
你懂的 这就是对他的一种认可 You know, you've got to rate to get that.
他没那么厉害 He isn't that good.
你怎么能这么说 你根本就不认识他 Well, now, how can you say that when you don't even know him?
那个 我多少还是认识他的 Well, I do know him. Slightly.
哦 那他长什么样子 Oh, what's he like?
嗯 他就是 嗯 Well, he's like, uh...
就是 嗯 Like, uh...
噢 Oh.
那个 您穿这身衣服我都没认出来 佛瑞斯特博士 Well, you certainly don't look like yourself in that getup, Dr. Forrester.
但我很高兴认识你 But I'm happy to meet you, anyway.
我叫塞尔维亚·范·布伦 在南加大教图书馆学 I'm Sylvia van Buren. I teach library science over at USC.
我不知道该怎么打断你 I didn't know how to stop you.
你把胡子剃了我才没认出来 I might have recognized you without the beard.
而且时代杂志封面上你没戴眼镜 And you didn't wear glasses on the Time cover.
哦 这是看远距离的时候用的 Oh, they're really for long distance.
要看近的的时候 我会把它拿下来 When I want to look at something close, I take them off.
天呐 在它上面都可以煎蛋 Boy, you could fry eggs on that thing!
这里的沙子都会保持很久的高温 All that sand will keep the heat in for a long time.
哦 马修叔叔 这是克莱顿·佛瑞斯特博士 Oh, Uncle Matthew, this is Dr. Clayton Forrester.
这是我叔叔 马修·柯林斯 他是本镇的牧师 My Uncle, Dr. Matthew Collins, pastor of the community church.
那个 您好 佛瑞斯特博士 Well, I— How do you do, Dr. Forrester?
您好 先生 How do you do, sir?
嘿 你过来 Hey, you!
你这里是什么 伙计 它像个炸弹一样滴滴响 What you got in here, fella? Tickin' like a bomb.
这是检测辐射的盖革计数器 This is a Geiger counter for detecting radioactivity.
我们在山上对此进行了一些调查 We did a little bit of surveying while we were up in the hills.
是那颗陨石 It's that meteor.
它有辐射吗 It's radioactive?
是的 Yes.
但是像这样它很难测出读数 Difficult to account for a reaction like that.
你看看 仪器疯了似的 Look at this thing. It's goin' crazy.
也许我们该让人群离开这里 对吧 Maybe we ought to keep people away from it, huh?
我觉得有道理 Might be a good idea.
我会派两三个代表 I'll post two or three deputies.
他们可以保证它不会再起火 They can make sure it doesn't start anymore fires, too.
你知道 那颗陨石要么非常轻 这是闻所未闻的 You know, that meteor's either very light, which is unheard of,
要么它就是空心的 or else it's hollow somehow.
如果它很重或是实心的 If it were heavy and solid,
在降落时会砸出一个超级大坑 it would have made a tremendous crater when it landed.
我会在这里等它冷却 I think I'll wait around until it cools off.
镇上有地方可以让我梳洗一下吗 If you tell me of a place in town, I-- I'd like to clean up.
如果你愿意去我家 我会很高兴的 佛瑞斯特博士 I'd be delighted if you'd stay at my house, Dr. Forrester.
谢谢你 Thank you.
恐怕24小时之内它都不会冷却 Probably won't be cool for another 24 hours.
镇上人星期六都在做些什么 What do people do around here on a Saturday?
他们没什么事可做 They don't do much of anything.
晚上在社区礼堂有个广场舞会 There's a square dance at the social hall this evening.
好吧 让我们再看看它 Well, let's take another look at it.
现在几乎已经冷却下来了 Almost cold now, ain't it?
不会再起火了 我们还是回家去吧 It won't start anymore fires. We might as well go home.
留在这里没什么意义 Yeah, no sense staying out here.
走吧 Let's go.
嘿 Hey!
它在动 It's moving!
它是个炸弹 It's a bomb.
昨晚它没爆炸 It don't go off last night.
或许它现在就要爆了 Maybe it's gonna go off now, huh?
这是敌人的偷袭 It's an enemy sneak attack.
我们快走吧 Let's get out of here.
等一下 等一下 Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
炸弹不会自己拧开 Bombs don't unscrew.
可以确定这不是陨石 It's no meteor, that's for sure.
它拧开的样子 Darnedest thing I ever saw...
是我见过最诡异的 the way that's unscrewin'.
谢谢你 佛瑞斯特博士 你玩得愉快吗 Thank you, Dr. Forrester. You having fun?
你知道我是怎么想的吗 And you want to know what I was thinking?
如果我们能收集整个广场舞过程中所有消耗的能量 If we could gather all the energy expended in just one square dance,
我们就可以将那颗流星给送回去 we could send that meteor back to where it came from.
一定有人在里面 Must be somebody in there.
会是谁 Who?
你觉得他们是从哪儿来的 Where do you think they come from?
我怎么知道 How would I know?
我在哪儿读到过 说火星和地球现在很近 I read some place, Mars is near the earth right now.
每隔二十年都会发生一次 Happens every 18 or 20 years, they say.
来自火星的人 Men from Mars.
你怎么想 What do you think?
也许他们不是像我们一样的人类 Maybe these are not men, not like us.
咱们也不能代表全人类的长相 Everything human doesn't have to look like you and me.
如果他们是火星人 我们应该让他们知道我们很友好 If it's men from Mars... we ought to let them know we're friendly.
别做傻事 你还不知道他们是什么呢 Don't fool around with something when you don't know what it is.
我们将是第一个和他们接触的人 知道吗 We'd be the first to make contact with them, see?
我们会上各大报纸 We'd be in all the papers.
这怎么样 How about that?
我们可以拿着白旗出去 以此显示我们的友好 We could show them we're friendly, huh? Walk out there with a white flag.
嘿 我车上有些旧糖袋子 Hey, I got an old sugar sack in my car.
我们要跟他们说什么 What are we going to say to them?
欢迎来加州 Welcome to California.
来吧 Come on.
我们是朋友 We're friends!
对 Yeah!
嘿 来吧 打开门 Hey, there! Open up!
他们会怎么理解我们 How they gonna understand us?
我们用手语说话 We'll talk in sign language.
他们会理解我们的 没事 They'll understand us, all right.
嗯 对 对 Mmm, sure. Sure!
谁都知道挥白旗是什么意思 我们会成为朋友的 Everybody understands when you wave the white flag, you wanna be friends.
嘿 这里 打开门吧 Hey, there! Open up!
现身吧 我们是朋友 Come on out! We're friends!
没错 欢迎你们 That's right! We welcome you!
我们是朋友 We're friends!
对 Yeah!
保险丝盒子在哪儿 Where's the fuse box?
别趁黑偷偷亲嘴啊 No smoochin' in the dark, folks.
有蜡烛吗 Any candles around?
嘿 看啊 整个镇子都停电了 Hey, look! All the lights in town have gone out!
有人找到蜡烛了 Somebody's found some candles.
快 联系电力公司 查清楚发生什么事了 Zippy, call the electric company and see what happened.
好的 Okay.
嘿 电话也坏了 Hey! The phone's gone dead!
这可怪了 电话和电线又不是同一个线路 That's funny. The phone's not on the same circuit as the lights.
他们在说什么 亲爱的 What are they saying, honey?
我的助听器出问题了 Something's wrong with my hearing aid.
那么 我们来玩“晚安女士们”游戏吧 Well, we always play "Good Night, Ladies" at 12:00, anyway.
反正现在快午夜了 It must be nearly that now.
我的表停了 My watch has stopped.
我来看时间 Oh, I've got the time.
哈 我的表也停了 Huh. Mine stopped, too.
我的也是 So's mine.
天呐 我的也停了 什么情况 Jeepers, mine ain't workin'. What is this?
为什么我们的表同时都停了 Why, they've all stopped at the same time.
只有一种可能 会造成这种现象 There's only one explanation for a thing like this.
你有针吗 Do you have a pin?
哦 看啊 哦 Oh, look! Oh!
看到了吗 我的表被磁化了 See that? My watch is magnetized.
这也是导致电话失灵的原因 That's what knocked the phones out, too.
那怎么会所有人的表都出故障了呢 How could it happen to everybody's watch altogether?
你身上有指南针吗 Do you have a pocket compass?
嗯 Yeah.
嘿 指针没有朝北边指 Hey, that needle isn't pointing north!
它指向了那颗陨石的方向 It's pointing to the gully where that meteor came down.
好啦 借过一下 借过一下 All right, folks, let me through. Let me through here.
警长 这是怎么回事 Sheriff, what's going on?
我知道的也没比你多多少 乔 I don't know anymore than you do, Joe.
你看那边有火光 Look at the fire out there.
我们去看看 Let's go see.
电源线断了 所以镇上的灯都灭了 The power lines are down. That explains why the lights went out.
什么 What —
嘿 看那辆车 Hey, look at the car!
留下来的那三个人呢 Where are the three men you left out here?
看那边 Look there!
镇上的人都开始跟过来了 People in town started to follow us.
别让他们靠近这里 Don't let them come anywhere near here.
跳开 快找掩护 Jump! Get under cover!
那什么鬼东西 What is that gizmo?
我猜那鬼东西是外星来的机器 I think that gizmo is a machine from another planet.
我们最好赶快通知当局 We better get word to the authorities.
看 Look!
警长 你最好赶快通知军方 Sheriff, you'd better get word to the military.
我们需要军队过来 You're going to need them out here.
行动起来 两人一组 Get movin', on the double.
沿河床找掩护 把那些303拿过来 Take cover along the riverbed! Get those 303 over here!
这块区域已被斗牛士基地的陆战队控制了 The area is under control of marines from El Toro base,
沟渠已经被包围 and the gully is surrounded.
啊 这是加拿大气象研究委员会的麦克弗森教授 Oh, and here's Professor McPherson of the Canadian meteorological research council.
你有接到报告说还有外星机器降落在别的地方吗 像加拿大 Is it true, Professor, you've had reports of landings in other places? In Canada?
加拿大还没有 Not in Canada yet.
不过在法国波尔多有 还有西班牙也有 But in Bordeaux, France. Some in Spain.
意大利塔兰托湾附近应该也有一个 There's supposed to be one down near the Gulf of Taranto, Italy.
我们正在确认午夜时 We're trying to locate the second meteor
降落在这里的第二颗陨石的位置 that landed in this vicinity just about midnight.
那么 你认为它们来自火星吗 Well, do you think they come from Mars?
您怎么想 佛瑞斯特博士 What do you think, Dr. Forrester?
哦 很有可能 Oh, it's possible.
至少它们看来的确是来自于其它星球的 At least it seems certain they're from some planet other than our own.
如果他们是火星人 教授 Suppose they are Mad/ans, Professor.
他们会是什么样子呢 比我们更大还是更小 What would they look like? Bigger than us? Smaller?
这个 对于火星人 我们的引力会压倒他们的 Well, as to Martians, our gravitational pull would weigh them down.
我们的空气太重 会压制住它们 Our heavier air would oppress them.
你觉得他们像我们一样呼吸吗 Then you think they'd be breathing creatures like us.
心脏和血液会是什么样子的呢 What about the heart and blood and all that?
如果他们是火星人 而且有心脏 But if they are Martians, and if they do have hearts,
那么他们心跳的频率应该会比较慢 they'd almost certainly beat at a slower rate.
他们的血管可能会扩张 Their veins might be distended.
当然 他们的五感也会和我们大相径庭 Their senses could be quite different from ours, of course.
他们或许会靠嗅觉辨识颜色 They may, for instance, be able to smell colors.
他们也许有不只一个脑袋 这是可能的 Precedent in our own evolution makes it possible
尤其是从我们的进化先例来看 that they have more than one brain.
你是说两个 三个 想象一下 伙计们 You mean two? Three? Just think of that, folks!
这些都是猜测 It is only speculation.
那么 佛瑞斯特博士 那些陨石机器是什么情况 Now, Dr. Forrester, what about these meteor machines?
它们在进入我们的大气层后 可能是靠喷气动力的 They're probably controlled by jets after they enter our atmosphere
并由某种形式的陀螺仪导航 and navigated by some form of gyroscopic mechanism.
谢谢你 佛瑞斯特博士 Thank you, Dr. Forrester.
上校 你能告诉我们飞机过来是要做什么的吗 Oh, Colonel. Can you tell us anything about this plane that's coming over?
他们会丢下照明弹 我们只敢这样照亮它 It'll drop a flare, that's the only way we dare put a light on them.
然后空军照相人员会接着拍照 Then Air Force cameramen will get pictures.
那是海军陆战队上校拉尔夫·赫夫纳 That was Marine Colonel Ralph Heffner.
那机器周围发生了不少神秘的活动 There's been a lot of mysterious activity around the machine,
灯光和灰尘 它们仿佛要把自己给挖出来 lights and dust, as if they're digging themselves out.
又来了 And there it comes again!
如果持续下去的话 刚好可以导引飞机定位 If this keeps up, it'll be a guide for the plane when it comes over.
是刚才那架飞机吗 Is that the plane now?
对 它打信号了 Yes. He's signaling.
飞行员刚刚启动了他的马达 这意味着他已经投下了照明弹 The pilot has just blipped his motor, that means he's dropped the flare.
他飞得很高 所以它需要几秒钟才能下来 He's flying high, so it'll take a few seconds for it to come down.
等灯光亮起 我们将是地球上第一个 When it does burst, we shall be the first men on earth
看到外星侵略者面目的人 to get a real look at these invaders from space.
外星人用镭射追击飞机 They're after the plane with their ray!
掩护 Take cover!
跳下去 Jump for it!
我们现在 Here we are in —
嘿 Hey!
线路被切断了 我的车被击中了 They cut me off! They got my truck!
看起来他们快从沟渠里出来了 It looks like they're gonna come out of that gully pretty soon.
以防万一 我们得赶快准备防卫 We'll have to rush our defenses to be ready when they do.
你需要足够多的增援部队 You're going to need plenty of reinforcements.
我们会有的 We'll get 'em.
他们封锁了消防通道 They got the fire road blocked.
一辆卡车轰然倒地 A truck fumed over.
军队肯定是在向这里移动 The troops are certainly moving in here.
我知道你跟第六军指挥官联络了 I know you sent word to the Sixth Army Command.
不 我只是告诉他们当地的情况 赫夫纳上校全权负责 No, I just told them the local situation, Colonel Heffner's in charge.
当你去跳广场舞时 你绝对不会知道 You never know where you're going to wind up
会发生这样的事情 不是吗 when you go to a square dance, do you?
偷运者 哪儿有偷运者 Runner? Wheres a runner?
这里是D-24 That's D-24.
好的 Correct.
现在 在这座山上设好观察哨 Now, locate your observation post on this hill.
把你的无后坐力753放回到这儿来 Position your recoilless 753 back here,
卡朋峡谷 Carbon Canyon.
好的长官 Yes, sir.
我要你在这里待命 I want your battery here.
天亮时你可能会暴露 You may find at daylight you're too exposed,
所以做好准备 以便尽快撤离 so, keep your prime movers ready to pull you out fast.
但你有机会对他们打出第一击 But you'll get first crack at 'em.
正合我意 还有别的事吗 长官 Suits me. Will that be all, sir?
嗯 准备好后通知我 Yes. Report when you're set up.
赫夫纳 Heffner.
半轨 好的 Half-tracks? Okay.
到三号山头后方去 Get in back of Hill 3.
重复一遍 三号山头 Repeat, Hill 3.
如果它是个移动的目标 就从那里跟进 If it's a moving target, follow up from there.
好的 All right.
能听到我说话吗 Can you hear me?
有人见过火星人吗 Anybody get a look at the Martians yet?
他们已经标定了第二颗陨石的位置 They've located that second meteor.
标记下来 Mark it up.
武装卡车在路上侧翻了 马上行动 及时报告 Weapons truck turned over on the road. Take action and report.
有多少战术人员没有参加行动 How many tactical men out of action?
没有无线电 No radio.
3-1-8-0 ...3-1-8-0.
这是第一颗 这是另外一颗 There's one. There's the other.
我们刚好在它们中间 Here we are right between them.
镇子也是一样 我注意到了 So is the town, I notice.
我要警告他们准备疏散 I warned them to be ready if they have to evacuate.
我刚从那儿来 大家都收到警报了 I just came to tell you everyone has been alerted.
肃立 Hut.
您到了 As you were.
曼恩将军 我知道您会来 先生 General Mann, I was told to expect you, sir.
我是赫夫纳上校 I'm Colonel Heffner.
我来此只是负责回报军情的 I'm here to make up a report,
不会干扰你下达的命令 指挥权还是你的 not to interfere with the operations you've set up. You're still in command.
克莱顿·佛瑞斯特 自从橡树岭后就没再见过了 Clayton Forrester. I haven't seen you since Oak Ridge.
很高兴见到您 将军 Good to see you, General.
这是柯林斯牧师 Oh, this is Pastor Collins,
布甘尼警长 他负责本地治安 Sheriff Bogany, head of local control,
范·布伦小姐 Miss Van Buren.
您好 将军 How do you do, General?
您要来杯咖啡吗 Would you care for some coffee?
谢谢 Thank you.
曼恩将军负责太平洋地区的情报 General Mann's in charge of intelligence for the Pacific area.
这是他们的位置 That's their position.
很好 你们确实把它们包围住了 Well, you've certainly got them surrounded.
我想他们屏蔽了这里的所有通讯 I suppose they neutralized all communications here.
是的 长官 无线电不能用了 但是野战电话还可以用 Not all, sir. Radio's out, but our field phones are okay so far.
好 等再放射一次热射线的时候他们就会活动了 Well, they'll go the minute there's another heat ray.
杭亭顿海滩报告有外星陨石 "Cylinder reported down by Huntington Beach."
那里由海军负责 That's a job for the Navy.
国外有消息吗 Any news from abroad?
华盛顿同各国都在密切联系中 Washington is in constant touch with the military of other nations.
它们显然已经降到各个地方 Apparently, they're coming down all over.
南美 South America.
圣地牙哥有两个 Santiago has two cylinders.
伦敦郊外也有 They're outside London.
那不勒斯也有 They're in Naples.
这里到弗雷斯诺之间还有一些 We've got them between here and Fresno.
萨克拉门托之外 Outside Sacramento.
长岛也有两个 Two on Long Island.
它们都是随机掉落的吗 They're just coming down at random?
不是 No.
根据外国情报源的信息 According to information from foreign sources,
它们似乎有一个整体的计划 they're working to some kind of a plan.
现在 情况还不明朗 Now, what it may be isn't clear yet,
主要只要它们一行动 simply because once they begin to move...
那个地区就失联了 no more news comes out of that area.
我们已经接到破坏和屠杀的报告 We've been getting reports of destruction, massacre.
这是一个案例 Here's an instance,
波尔多南部的圣朱利安镇被未知的自然光线摧毁 "Town of St. Julien, South of Bordeaux wiped out by ray of undetermined nature.
当地报告说没有任何东西幸存 Local reports say nothing remains."
没有幸存 你想是怎么回事 "Nothing remains." What do you make of that?
我们看到他们用的镭射热线 All we've seen is the heat ray they use.
我们这里有些最新的武器 Well, some of our newest weapons are in here.
希望能用这些武器阻止它们 We want to be sure to stop them.
我们会的 长官 We will, sir.
根据空军今晚稍早时得到的资料和照片 Now, from the data, from that picture, the air force took earlier tonight...
我们得以看到最早的外星前导舰 what we've got out there is the original pilot ship.
根据观察可知 是它导引了其它的外星舰降落 On the basis of its observations, the others were guided down.
从模式上看 第一个降落 第二个降落 Pattern-wise, one lands, then two,
凑成三个就用电磁结合成群 making groups of threes joined magnetically.
这有可能吗 Is that possible?
如果他们这么做了 就有可能 -If they do it, it is.
我得到的命令是 只要它们不离开沟渠 我就按兵不动 My orders are not to go into action unless they move out of that gully.
同时 我们也有机会能观察他们 Meanwhile, we'll have a chance to observe them.
这是我们唯一能包围住他们的地方了 This is the only place we've had time to surround them
有足够的力量来遏制他们 with sufficient force to contain them.
发生的一切都可以供其它地方参考 What happens here will be a guide to all other operations.
现在 等它开始行动 我们也形成防卫模式后 Now, the minute action begins and a pattern of defense develops,
我就会向华盛顿报告 I'll get my report to Washington.
你的部队部署的很好 You've deployed your forces well.
谢谢你 长官 Thank you, sir.
如果他们开始活动 我们都可以将他们从地球上炸掉 If they start anything, we can blast them right off the earth.
它们可能凌晨开始行动 They'll probably move at dawn.
沟渠里有动静了 There's something moving in the gully.
你看看那里 Look at it, will you?
来自外星的生物 Beings from another world.
那是一种飞行器吗 Is that some kind of a flying machine?
不 不 No, no.
地面有雷射光线撑着它 可能是一种电磁形式能量 It's supported from the ground by rays, probably some form of magnetic flux,
就像隐形的腿 like invisible legs.
不可思议 This is amazing.
他们一定是让电磁正负极保持平衡 让机器升起来的 They must keep the opposing poles in balance and lift the machine.
准备开火 Stand by to fire.
传令下去 准备开火 All command posts, stand by to fire.
但是 上校 开火不是好办法 But, colonel, shooting's no good.
开火永远有说服力 It's always been a good persuader.
难道你不应该先和它们沟通 Shouldn't you try to communicate with them first,
实在不行才开火吗 and shoot later if you have to?
已发现目标 重复一遍 已发现目标 Target as indicated. Repeat. Target as indicated.
753报告说他们已经看到了他们 长官 The 753 report they've got them under open sights, sir.
我觉得应该让它们明白 I think we should try to make them understand
我们不想伤害它们 we mean them no harm.
又有一架机器出来了 There's another machine coming out.
它们都是活生生的生物 They are living creatures out there.
可它们不是人类 But they're not human.
佛瑞斯特博士说它们是某种更先进的文明 Dr. Forrester says they're some kind of advanced civilization.
如果他们比我们先进 If they're more advanced than us...
它们应该更接近造物主 they should be nearer the creator for that reason.
这是个移动的目标 准备跟进 It'll be a moving target. Prepare to follow up.
我们竟然没有任何跟它们沟通的尝试 No real attempt has been made to communicate with them, you know.
我们进去吧 马修叔叔 Let's go back inside, Uncle Matthew.
刚刚我已经尽力了 你回去吧 I've done all I can in there. You go back.
塞尔维亚 Sylvia.
我喜欢那个佛瑞斯特博士 I like that Dr. Forrester.
他是个好人 He's a good man.
所有炮位注意 准备对空射击 Attention, all batteries, prepare for volley fire.
重复一遍 准备对空射击 Repeat, prepare for volley fire.
那是谁 Who's that?
他想干什么 What's he think he's doing?
叔叔 马修叔叔 Uncle! Uncle Matthew!
来不及了 他出去太远了 It's too late now! He's too far away!
拦住他 Stop him!
因为我行过死荫的幽谷 Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
我不怕邪恶 I will fear no evil.
拦住他 Stop him!
拦住他啊 Stop!
它们看到他了 It's seen him.
你用油膏了我的头 Thou anointest my head with oil.
使我的福杯满溢 My cup runneth over.
我且要住在耶和华的殿中 直到永远 And I will dwell in the house of the lord... forever.
让它们尝尝厉害 Let 'em have it!
开火 Fire!
它们有防护 炮弹打不进去 Those shells can't get through to them.
他们施展了一种电磁防护 They've put out some sort of electromagnetic covering,
一个保护性的气泡 a protective blister.
它们一定是用这种骷髅射线扫平法国城镇的 That skeleton beam must be what they used to wipe out the French city.
它以某种方式中和了介子 It neutralizes mesons somehow.
它们是将物质结合在一起的原子胶 They're the atomic glue holding matter together.
切断它们的磁力线 任何物体都将不复存在 Cut across their lines of magnetic force, and any object will simply cease to exist.
将军 相信我 Take my word for it, general.
我们这种防御对那种力量毫无用处 This type of defense is useless against that kind of power.
你最好赶快让华盛顿知道这个情况 You'd better let Washington know. Fast!
尽可能地挡住他们 Hold 'em as long as you can.
收到 长官 Right, sir.
传令所有指挥所 Order all command posts,
全部撤到60号公路北边去 everything pull back north of highway 60 tunnel bunker.
收到 Right.
所有人都出去 所有人都出去 Everybody out of here! Everybody out!
空军会来收拾它们的 The Air Force will take care of these babies now.
佛瑞斯特博士 请离开这里 Dr. Forrester, get out of here.
所有人都离开 Everybody out of here!
所有人 Everybody —
快要撞上了 你就不能飞高点吗 You'll hit something. Can't you go higher?
这里马上就会有一堆喷射机了 No. The air will be full of jets any minute.
他们来了 There they are!
关于火星人的入侵 ...all about the Martian invasion.
它们到了纽约和迈阿密 在洛衫矶外围激战 They're in New York and Miami, fighting outside Los Angeles.
详情都有报导 All about it.
将军 请等一下 Hold it right there, General, please.
我到这里来就是为了问你问题的 You're the gentlemen I asked to come here.
曼恩将军 你对目前情势有何看法 General Mann, what do you think of this situation?
你认为我们的军队能抵挡他们吗 Is it your opinion the army can hold them?
抱歉 我没时间 Sorry. I've no time.
将军 你整夜都让军队荷枪实弹 You've got guns and equipment going out there all night, General.
好了 快散开 Come on. Break it up.
他在回避这个问题 恐怕防卫行动没有成功 The way he's hedging, maybe the army didn't hold them.
我看到了太平洋通讯的新闻 I've seen news off the Pacific cables.
澳大利亚的悉尼 槟城 印度仰光 Sidney, Australia. Penang. Rangoon, India.
他们所到之处 目前没人能成功阻挡它们 From what's coming through, nobody's stopped them yet.
我想知道 是不是必须要疏散城市 I want to know, if the city must be evacuated.
我们准备好了 有很多人已经撤离了 We're ready. Lots of people have already moved out.
我们在院子里紧急动员了轿车和公共汽车 We've mobilized emergency cars and buses in the yards.
红十字会也准备好了 The red cross is standing by.
现在 根据你的情报 敌人距离洛衫矶只有三十英里 Now, for your information, the enemy is 25 or 30 miles outside Los Angeles.
它们还没有全部出动 但很快就会出现了 Not down in full force yet but developing. It can happen any minute.
如果他们向大都市区移动 就出大麻烦了 The crisis will come if they move toward the metropolitan area.
现在我们要 Now we've got —
长官 华盛顿来电 Washington's on the line, sir.
曼恩将军 General Mann.
我想说 我们的人员损失达六成 装备损失达九成 I'd say our effective losses were nearly 60% men, 90% material.
还有 战机投入战场后没有一架返航 Well, the jets went in, but not one of them came out.
我看到高级轰炸机抛下了他们携带的所有东西 I watched high-level bombers drop everything they carried.
而我们的武器只是从天而降 一点用都没有 They were knocked out of the sky, and their bombs did nothing.
我们对它们束手无策 Nothing was effective against them.
是的 他们有某种电子屏障 极为难以穿透 Yes. They have some sort of electronic umbrella. It's quite impenetrable.
佛瑞斯特博士认为它们直接利用原子能 Dr. Forrester believes they generate atomic force
不像我们使用时还有重屏蔽 without the heavy screening we use.
他们就是在这里获得射线能量 That's where they get the power for their rays.
是的 长官 Very well, sir.
给我拨维克托维尔 我要一架最快的飞机 Call Victorville, tell them I want the fastest plane they've got.
第六集团军司令部会发布一切进一步的指示 You'll get all further instructions from Sixth Army Command.
现在我要对记者发布声明 Now I'll make a statement to those reporters.
好了 Right.
好了 将军现在可以见你们了 All right, fellas. The General will see you now.
将军 我听说佛瑞斯特博士和你同行 General, we heard that Dr. Clayton Forrester was out there with you.
他有什么看法 What's he think about this?
他已经回到太平洋科研所了 你们去问他 Ask him. He's back at Pacific Tech.
他没回去 我们有去找他 但他没现身 No, he's not. We tried to get him there. He hasn't shown up.
醒醒 Wake up.
我们该动身了 好吗 Let's get moving, huh?
你还好吗 Are you all right?
是那架机器 Is that machine...
它已经走了 It's gone.
我们在哪 Where are we?
应该是可洛纳西南边某处 Southwest of Corona somewhere.
这里一定也坠落了一颗外星陨石 There must have been another cylinder down here.
他们已经把所有人都疏散出去了 They've been through this whole area and cleared everybody out.
那边有座农舍 There's a farmhouse out there.
我们去看看能不能找点吃的 好吗 Let's see if we can find something to eat, huh?
我们情况还不差 We're doing all right.
我都快忘记上一顿饭是什么时候吃的了 You know, I almost forgot when I ate last.
看起来味道不错 Hey, that looks good.
我一般都是在咖啡馆或餐厅吃饭 You know, mostly I get my meals in coffee shops and restaurants.
你不住在家里吗 Don't you live at home?
不 我住学校 No, on the campus.
我还没成家 I haven't any family.
我来自一个大家庭 I come from a big one.
兄弟姐妹共九人 都住在明尼苏达 There's nine of us, all in Minnesota...
除了我 except me.
我没有近亲家人 I have no close folks.
父母在我年幼时就过世了 My parents died when I was a kid.
大家庭一定很有意思 我想 A big family must be fun. I imagine —
我想它应该会让你有归属感 I imagine it makes you feel you belong to something.
哦 那倒是 Oh, it does.
或许这就是我现在感到失落的原因 Maybe that's why I feel kind of lost right now.
我们会安全脱身的 We'll get out of here safely.
别担心 Don't worry.
但它们似乎会杀了所有活动的目标 But they seem to murder everything that moves.
只要它们是肉身 就一定有弱点 If they're mortal, they must have mortal weaknesses.
我们会有办法成功阻止它们的 They'll be stopped... somehow.
我还没机会靠近它们 I've been as close to them as anyone,
没有对它们进行过仔细观察 and never close enough for any real observation.
我现在的感觉就像小时候的一次经历 I feel like I did one time when I was small...
我那时又害怕又孤单 awful scared and lonesome.
我走丢了 I'd wandered off.
但我忘了是为什么 I've forgotten why.
不过 家人和所有邻居都出来找我 But the family and whole crowds of neighbors were hunting for me.
最后发现我在教堂里 They found me in a church.
除了那里我哪都不敢去 I was afraid to go in any place else.
我躲在门后 I stayed right by that door,
祈祷最爱我的人能找到我 praying for the one who loved me best to come and find me.
是马修叔叔找到了我 It was Uncle Matthew who found me.
我喜欢他 I liked him.
他也喜欢你 He liked you.
啊 我真想大声嚎哭 Oh, I could bawl my head off.
但你不会大哭 你很坚强 But you're not going to. You're not the kind.
你只是整晚都撑着 累了 Look, you're tired. You've been up all night.
我们从飞上机掉下来 昏倒在水沟里 You cracked up in a plane, slept in a ditch.
你知道吗 You want to know something?
这些都没影响到你 It doesn't show on you at all.
啊 Oh.
趴下 Get down!
我昏迷了多久 How long was I out?
几个小时 啊 我好害怕 Hours. Oh, I've been so scared.
它们就在外面 好几个一起下来 They're right outside. Several of them came down together.
那里有个火星机器就在我们旁边 There's a machine standing right alongside of us.
是个电子眼 An electronic eye.
像电视摄影机 Like a television camera.
它在寻找我们 It's looking for us.
或许它们并不是特别肯定 我们在这里 Maybe they're not too sure we're here.
或许它们对我们很好奇 正如我们对它们一样 They could be as curious about us as we are about them.
或许 Maybe.
或许它们想生擒我们 Maybe they want to take us alive.
它退出去了 It's pulling out.
我们跑不出去吗 Can't we get out of here?
外面有东西在动 Something moved out there.
现在没有了 There's nothing there now.
是它们中的一个 It was... one of them.
它长什么样子 What was it like?
外面太黑了看不清 但肯定是 I couldn't see much in the dark, but it was one.
我们在他们的巢穴附近 我必须仔细观察一下它们 We're right in a nest of them. I've got to get a good look at them.
它们把那边堵住了 They've blocked it.
这边也一样 It's blocked here, too.
它们把土推在外面周围 They've pushed earth or something all around outside.
来 这里 Here. This way.
这里通往阁楼 The stairway up to the attic.
小心 Look out!
你的围巾 Your scarf.
它湿了 It's wet.
是血 Blood.
不 不 No. No!
别叫 Stop it!
别喊了 别喊了 Stop it! Stop it!
那不是血 That was not blood!
我们得赶快跑 来吧 We gotta make a run for it. Come on.
海军陆战队发现它们 The Martians had calculated their descent upon our earth
以不可思议的完美方式降落 with amazing perfection and subtlety.
随着从神秘外太空降落的机器越来越多 As more of their cylinders came from the mysterious depths of space,
它们战争机器的复杂度和强大的力量超乎我们的想像 their war machines, awesome in their power and complexity,
这在全世界都造成了恐怖的氛围 created a wave of fear which swept into all corners of the world.

令人敬畏的芬兰和土耳其军队 The redoubtable Finnish and Turkish armies,
中国军队和玻利维亚人奋力抵抗 Chinese battalions and Bolivians worked and fought furiously.
但每一次对抗异界对手强大力量的努力 Every effort against the tremendous power of their other-world antagonists
都以同样的溃败告终 ended in the same frantic rout.
随着火星人烧毁田野和森林 大城市在他们面前倒塌 As the Martians burned fields and forests, and great cities fell before them,

这是文明灭绝的开始 It was the beginning of the rout of civilization,
是人类的浩劫 of the massacre of humanity.
半个欧洲陷入死寂 通讯完全中断 A great silence fell over half of Europe as all communication was disrupted.
当从巴黎发出的最后一张电报 When the last wire photo out of Paris
传到流放到斯特拉斯堡的法国内阁时 reached the French cabinet, exiled in Strasbourg,
他们萌生了使用超高速喷气式飞机作为信使 they hit upon the idea of using super-speed jets as couriers
剥离武器并装载额外燃料的想法 stripped of armament and loaded with extra fuel,
他们用这些飞机与斯堪的纳维亚国家保持联系 these planes maintained connection with the Scandinavian countries,
与北非 美国联系 尤其是英国 North Africa, the United States, and especially with England.
火星人显然知道 It was plain the Martians appreciated
英国的战略价值 the strategic significance, of the British Isles.
英国人民以大无畏的精神面对火星侵略者 The people of Britain met the invaders magnificently.
但结果却是徒劳的 But it was unavailing.
当火星人打到伦敦时 英国议会持续运作 As Martians swept northward toward London, the British cabinet stayed in session,
收集所有能得到的情报 coordinating every item of information that could be gathered,
传到纽约的联合国总部 passing it on to the United Nations in New York.
从那里再转到华盛顿 From there, the news was forwarded to Washington
因为那里是唯一没被打到的战略据点 because here was the only remaining unassailed strategic point.

尽一切努力联系民政当局 Make every effort to contact civil authorities
让他们疏散已宣布的紧急地区 evacuating declared emergency areas.
现在 这是毋庸置疑的 Now, this much is certain.
防止火星机器集合在一起至关重要 It's vital to prevent the Martian machines from linking up.
一旦它们结合起来 将形成无法抵挡的态势 Once they do, they adopt an extraordinary military tactic.
它们形成一端固定的拱门 They form a crescent.
他们将其固定在一端并扫过 They anchor it at one end...
直到清除一个象限为止 and sweep on until they've cleared a quadrant.
然后他们锚定另一端 再从反向做一遍 Then they anchor the opposite end and reverse direction.
他们像镰刀一样横扫全国 They slash across country like scythes,
消灭一切试图逃离他们的东西 wiping out everything that's trying to get away from them.
这就是为什么它们一开始行动 我们通讯就断线的原因 That explains why communication is cut the moment their machines begin moving.
蒙特里已经失去联络了 没有新消息 Montreal's blacked out. Nothing more's come through.
太平洋沿岸也一样 还没消息过来吗 Same thing that happened on the Pacific coast. Anything from them yet?
没有 秘书先生 已经五小时没接到旧金山那边的消息了 No, Mr. Secretary we've had nothing from San Francisco for over five hours.
长官 打扰一下 这是目前洛衫矶地区的影像 Excuse me, gentlemen. Here's that Los Angeles picture, sir.
这是从极高处拍摄的声波雷达图片 This is a sonic radar picture taken from extreme altitude.
它显示了洛衫矶外面火星人总部的详细情况 It shows full details of the Martian nest outside Los Angeles.
它们的机器在图上以圆点呈现 Their machines appear as round blobs.
新降落的火星机器呈现拉长状 Newly fallen cylinders are elongated.
它们以三个气缸为一组 We know there are three cylinders to each group
每个气缸由3个机器构成 and three machines to each cylinder.
够了 我看得够多了 All right. I've seen enough.
只有一样东西能阻挡它们 There's only one thing that'll stop the Martians.
由于顾忌辐射对平民的危险 我们一度退缩 We've held back because of the danger of radiation to civilians.
但现在已经别无选择 Now there's no choice.
白宫将发布原子弹攻击命令 The White House will confirm an order to use the atom bomb.
我们的第一个目标将是洛衫矶外 火星人最先着陆之处 Then our first target will be the initial landing place outside Los Angeles.
你到达那里的第一件事 就是安排太平洋科技科学家 First thing you get there, arrange for the Pacific Tech scientists
去检测落点 to monitor the drop.
我会在你动身之前发电报 让他们把那里清理干净 I'll send wire orders ahead of you and have the area clear all around.
我们还来得及在天黑前行动 We've still time to hit them before dark.
要在全球各地炸它们 Then we'll blast them all over the world.
佛瑞斯特 我们一直在找你 Forrester, everybody's been looking for you.

我们被派去执行特别任务 We've been assigned as special detail,
马上就要过去 研究它的效果 we're going in right afterwards, study its effect.
我们半小时内就得动身 We're leaving in half an hour.
这是什么 What's that?
特大的鱼眼 King-sized fish eye?
这是个火星电眼 This is an electronic eye.
它们以自己的眼睛为模型造出这种电眼 The Martians modeled it after their own eye.
然后拿它当潜望镜用 They use it the way we use a periscope.
我们可以了解到它们的金属和合金 It'll tell us a lot about their metals and alloys.
如果这是个镜头 那我们可以了解它们的光学元件 If this is actually a lens, we can find out about their optics.
有意思 真有意思 Interesting. Very interesting.
还有这里 And this...
是火星人的血 the blood of a Martian.
我从未见过这种贫血的血晶体 I don't remember ever seeing blood crystals as anemic as these.
它们或许是智力上的超人 They may be mental giants...
但以我们的生理标准来看 它们实在很原始 but, by our standards, physically, they must be very primitive.
它们所有的东西似乎都是以三为基础的 这不奇怪吗 Isn't it curious how everything about them seems to be in threes?
他们的眼睛有三个镜片和三个不同的瞳孔 Their eyes have three lenses and three distinct pupils.
他们很怕强光 Strong light shocks them.
它们并不习惯这里 They're not accustomed to it.
火星上的阳光亮度充其量只有我们一半 Sunlight on Mars is approximately half as strong as we get it.
加上云尘遮挡 光照强度跟我们刚破晓时差不多 Add their clouds and dust, it amounts to no more than our twilight.
请大家过来这边 Now if you'll step over here, please.
我们可以用幻灯机播放火星眼看到的影像 We've rigged the epidiascope to reflect whatever the Martian lens picks up.
稍靠过来一点 Move in a little.
谢谢 Thank you.
火星人就是这么看我们的 There's how the Martians see us.
显然 他们的频谱发生了变化 Evidently there's a shift in their spectrum.
它们对颜色的吸收肯定和我们不一样 Their color absorption must be different from ours.
让我们来看看为什么它们对你那么好奇 范·布伦小姐 Let's see why they were so curious about you, Miss van Buren.
该走了 各位 Time to get started, gentlemen.
走吧 Let's go.
那火星人的血 让他们快速分析一下 看看有没有什么结果 That Martian blood, let them make a quick analysis of it and see what we've got.
肯定能得到些结果的 It might give us something.
对我们会有帮助 Something we could use.
好了 算了吧 如果你对火星人的血感兴趣 Oh, let it go. If you're interested in Martian blood,
等原子弹丢下去后 你要多少火星血都有 you'll get all you want right after the plane drops the bomb.
飞翼机带着那颗原子弹 The flying wing is going to carry it.

祝我们好运 收到 Wish us luck. Roger.
轰炸目标是潘塔岭的火星机器巢穴 The target for the A-bomb is this nest of Martian machines in the Puente Hills,
昨晚有更多的火星机器降落在了那里 where more of these meteor-cylinders came down early last evening.
飞机将在六英里高处对准目标投弹 A plane will pinpoint the target for the drop from six miles up.
这颗原子弹的威力比过去使用过的 We've been warned that this bomb is ten times more powerful
要强十倍 than anything previously used.
这是核裂变的最新成果 It's the latest thing in nuclear fission.
从没有威力这么大的炸弹被引爆过 Nothing like this has ever been exploded before,
我们会在很近的地方观察它爆炸 and we're going to be pretty darn close.
不过在前方有比我们更近的观察掩体 But there are observers down in the valley in a forward bunker.
他们会比我们更近 Well, they'll be a lot nearer than us.
全世界都在等待 The whole world is waiting,
攻击的结果将决定人类文明和全人类的命运 for this will decide the fate of civilization and all humanity.
人类的存亡都取决于此了 Whether we live or die, may depend on what happens here.
请注意 距离投弹倒数四分钟 Attention, please. Four minutes to bomb time.
一定有好几百万人在我们身后 There must be a couple of million people back of us,
在圣盖博山的庇护所里等待着 in the shelter of the San Gabriel hills, waiting.
等着看是否能回到家园 Waiting to find out whether they can go home again.
在世界各地 人们都被赶出家园 Everywhere, all around the world people have been driven from their homes.
和华盛顿的电缆通讯一直保持着 Direct cable communication is being maintained with Washington,
但完全没有无线通讯 but there's no radio at all,
连要去轰炸的飞机都不能连线 not even with the bombing plane that's coming over.
所有通讯都中断了 All radio is dead.
这意味着我正在制作的这些磁带录音 Which means that these tape recordings I'm making
是为了未来的历史 are for the sake of future history...
如果还有未来 if any.
他说未来的历史 Future history, he said.
没错 如果还有未来的话 Yes. If any.
比德贝克计算出在它们彻底控制地球前 Bilderbeck has calculated how long we have got,
我们还能争取多少时间 until Martians take over the entire world.
如果原子弹没用 If the A-bomb fails, that is.
火星人将在六天内征服地球 The Martians can conquer the earth in six days.
