Onward to the Edge - melodysheep/Symphony of Science.mp3

[00:05.000]The act of moving onward means we pass these sign posts
[00:09.000]One of them was first leaving earth
[00:11.000]The next one was hanging out on the moon
[00:13.000]What's next? The planet
[00:16.000]Onward to the edge
[00:17.490](We are Moving) onward to the edge
[00:20.000]Here we are together
[00:22.000]This fragile little world
[00:27.000]Onward to the edge
[00:28.000](We are Moving) onward to the edge
[00:31.000]Here we are together
[00:33.000]This fragile little world
[00:37.000]This is our sun
[00:40.000]Just another star in a sea of stars
[00:43.000]The heart of the solar system
[00:45.000]Just another star in a sea of stars
[00:49.000]Mercury is the closest planet
[00:53.000]This tortured piece of rock has been stripped naked
[00:58.000]The moon has a sky, it has a horizon
[01:01.000]It's another world
[01:03.000]It's got earth in the sky
[01:05.000]Just the way we have the moon in the sky
[01:09.000]Onward to the edge
[01:11.000](We are Moving) onward to the edge
[01:13.000]Here we are together
[01:15.000]This fragile little world
[01:19.000]We are not the only world to think about
[01:22.000]Worlds unknowned
[01:25.000]We are not the only world to think about
[01:28.000]Worlds unknowned
[01:30.000]There is a powerful recognition
[01:32.000]That stirs within us
[01:35.000]When we see our own little blue ocean planet
[01:40.000]In the skies of other worlds
[01:41.000]Powerful recognition
[01:43.000]That stirs within us
[01:46.000]When we se our own little blue ocean planet
[01:50.000]In the skies of other worlds
[01:52.000]The Saturn system
[01:54.000]Offers splendor beyond compare
[01:56.000]Because of its rings and very diverse moons
[02:02.000]These are no longer abstractions
[02:05.000]These are worlds, maybe there's life there
[02:08.000]They've changed how we think about Earth
[02:16.000]Our own little blue ocean planet
[02:19.000]A mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam
[02:22.000]The pale blue dot
[02:24.000]Onward to the edge
[02:25.500](We are Moving) onward to the edge
[02:28.000]Here we are together
[02:30.000]This fragile little world
[02:34.500]Onward to the edge
[02:36.000](We are Moving) onward to the edge
[02:39.000]Here we are together
[02:41.000]This fragile little world
[02:45.000]We are not the only world to think about
[02:48.000]Worlds unknowned
[02:50.000]We are not the only world to think about
[02:54.000]Worlds unknowned
[02:56.000]The laws of nature create vastly different worlds
[03:00.000]With the tiniest changes
[03:06.000]When I reach to the edge of the universe
[03:09.000]I do so knowing that along some paths of cosmic discovery
[03:14.000]There are times when, at least for now
[03:17.000]One must be content to love the questions themselves
