ABC Space

I want to be an ASTRONAUT,

I want to know what a BLACK HOLE hides.

I want to see never stopping COMET

In its full light.

 

I want to watch how the comet passes DOUBLE STAR.

Coming closer to EARTH,

The comet gives a birth

To FALLING STAR,

Sliding down the sky.

I’d like to see the trail

Of magnificent light

The star leaves behind.

What a wonderful sight!

 

I want to see GALAXIES far away

In the HUBBLE TELESCOPE,

IO, the volcanic moon of JUPITER,

And like KEPLER discover new laws.

 

I want to pilot a LUNAR MODULE,

I want to land on the MOON,

I want to build a fast spacecraft

To visit NEPTUNE,

 

The most distant planet,

Its ORBIT is 165 years long!

But PLUTO is farther from the Sun,

So it won!

 

I want to pass by QUASARS

In my ROCKET.

Shining like jewels in the crown,

They are the brightest objects.

 

I want to see SATURN.

This gas giant is very light.

I’d like to count its beautiful rings.

They are made of chunks of rock and ice.

 

I want to build a super-powerful

Sensitive TELESCOPE

To detect UFO in the UNIVERSE.

I want to offer my hand to aliens

And say my friendliest Hello!

 

Then I will tell them what I know.

The brightest planet is VENUS.

WHITE DWARFS are dying stars.

AN X-RAY TELESCOPE sees more than us.

 

It turns unseen energy into images

And send them back to Earth.

YURI GAGARIN is the first human to travel in space.

I want to be like him,

I want to explore the universe.

 

The sun is at its ZENITH.

Sitting in the tree’s cool shade,

I’m  reading my ABC Space book.

I’m sure that one day

My big dreams will come true!
