The countdown begins, our hearts rapidly beat,
We’re going to Jupiter; yeah that’s a great feat,
The world is proud; we’re doing our part,
The engines ignite, we’re gonna depart!

Our stomachs start aching, the fear inside grows,
The shuttle launches with an unbelievable force,
Our controls vibrate; I’m glued to my seat,
We’re gonna Jupiter, yeah that’s a great feat!

The birds, clouds and stars begin to pass,
Another few months, we would’ve crossed Mars,
Isolated from my family the thought makes me numb,
Was this idea wrong, were my actions dumb?

I think of those who died in space,
The memories they gave, it leaves me in a daze,
God was cruel, one can’t argue,
But life’s like that, we gotta continue,

Well come what may, the going will get tough,
I’m determined to succeed, it’s never enough,
From the world and all we’re all discreet,
We’re going to Jupiter; yeah that’s a GREAT FEAT!
