Onward to the Edge |
The act of moving onward means we pass these sign posts |
One of them was first leaving earth |
The next one is hanging out on the moon |
What’s next? |
The planets |
Onward to the edge |
We’re moving onward to the edge |
Here we are together |
This fragile little world |
This is our sun |
Just another star in a sea of stars |
The heart of the solar system |
Just another star in a sea of stars |
Mercury is the closest planet |
This tortured piece of rock has been stripped naked |
The moon has a sky |
It has a horizon |
It’s another world |
It’s got earth in the sky |
Just the way we have the moon in the sky |
We’re not the only world to think about |
Worlds unnumbered |
We’re not the only world to think about |
Think about worlds unnumbered |
There is a powerful recognition |
That stirs within us |
When we see our own little blue ocean planet |
In the skies of other worlds |
The Saturn system |
Offers splendor beyond compare |
Because of its rings |
And very diverse moons |
These are no longer abstractions |
These are worlds |
Maybe there’s life there |
They’ve changed how we think about Earth |
«A mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam |
The pale blue dot» (Carl Sagan) |
The laws of nature create |
Vastly different worlds |
With the tiniest of changes |
When I reach to the edge of the universe |
I do so knowing that along some paths of cosmic discovery |
There are times when, at least for now |
One must be content to love the questions themselves |
