Per Errationes Ad Astra-Ian Anderson[00:00:00]

We thought it over for a century or two.[00:00:00]

Considered all in light of such short history.[00:00:03]

Would you let them loose upon the[00:00:06]

stars? Bring their dark and murky[00:00:09]

waters to lap on pristine shores?[00:00:12]

Fine in their own place and with[00:00:15]

their own destiny to follow.[00:00:17]

But - breeding like rabbits on other[00:00:19]

worlds and with other calmer spirits?[00:00:21]

Per errationes ad astra? Then dream, dream on.[00:00:26]

The dream is all. All good sense gone.[00:00:35]

Neil, Buzz, and Michael, they made a team. [00:00:40]

The right stuff in a can of spam.[00:00:42]

The brave adventure came to nought,[00:00:46]

cruel economics had their say.[00:00:50]

A tiny bubble of pure white light from mighty[00:00:52]

engines roared on Pad 39A in the night.[00:00:56]

Orbiters and Soyuz towered on[00:00:59]

stacks of Lox and hydrogen.[00:01:03]

But what a little squib, [00:01:06]

a little firework in the cosmic crash of fiery[00:01:09]

fusion as far galaxies collide:[00:01:12]

drowned in the vastness of all we see[00:01:15]

and, still, can only just imagine.[00:01:18]

Let's not worry about the wandering man. [00:01:21]

He'll wander hither if he can.[00:01:23]

But his time may have already come.[00:01:26]

And gone.[00:01:30]
