LYRICS
As one that has always marveled
At a road less traveled
I love the pace of a race
Blasting off in outer space
Time to get ’round
To our countdown
10,9,8
Too late to wait

Bored to death here on Earth
Ready for interstellar birth
Fly right on by
Our blue sky
None to soon
Zoom past the moon
Time to get ’round
7,6,5
Into overdrive
4,3,2,1
It’s how the race is run
It’s how the race is won
It’s how the race is one

bookmark_borderDose Of Cosmos

A song inspired by NASA and scientists all around Earth… that inspire us earthlings to consider the realms. Here is a dose of the cosmos using their visuals… combined with a little fractal animation, chaos theory and special effects. A partial list of picture credits would include New Zealand, Earth, Moon (ours and others), Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto, space debris, nebuli, galaxies, black holes and artists’ depictions.

LYRICS
I’m going to take a dose of cosmos
And get far out
Into my outer space

My body leaving no trace
Getting into my outer space

Going to take a dose of cosmos
And get far out
Without a doubt
Get into my outer space
Just put on your brave face
And, let’s get into our outer space

This is the verse
About getting out of the universe
We were much to close
Now it’s time to get far out
In our outer space
I hope I’m not off base
By suggest you take a dose of cosmos
And, get far out

Bizarre?
Mars isn’t that far
Get your arse passed Uranus
Maybe stop at Jupiter
Play a little guitar
Burn on Saturn
Another dose of cosmos
We’ll be in outer space
On the way through the Milky Way
As we transverse the universe
Another dose of cosmos

Just for fun
Go around the sound
Round and round the sun
Soon will be coming home
Around the moon
Take a dose of the cosmos
And, get far out

LYRICS
None to soon
We’ll be living on the moon
On our way through the stars
Maybe make home on mars

But the moon’s not mine
Can I mine the moon
And, do we want to leave our scars on mars?

Space debris as far as the eye can see
Another giant hunk of space junk
Orbital debris — a mess due to humanity
Humans have a taste for space waste
Leaving us the curse of the universe
Aliens will be left in strife
If they come looking for intelligent life
Come on, Man! Can “leave no trace”
Be our motto for space

166 BPM / World Pop

Europe and Russia announced their joint plan to colonize the moon for the purpose of mining. From the moon, man would launch humans further out into space. NASA recently announced its plans for manned missions to mars.

Space debris, also known as orbital debris, space junk and space waste, is the collection of manmade defunct objects in orbit around Earth. This includes spent rocket stages, old satellites and fragments from disintegration, erosion and collisions. Since orbits overlap with new spacecraft, debris may collide with operational spacecraft.

As of 2009 about 19,000 pieces of debris larger than 5 cm (2 in) are tracked, while an estimated 300,000 pieces larger than 1 cm exist….
