Progress when time is twenty-twenty four,
With curiosity leading the way,
Humankind shall not cease from our explore.

In alliance, further still we will soar,
With one-way tickets all aboard will stay,
Resettlement’s our species guarantor.

To occupy the fourth rock from the sun,
Want of greatness is our inspiration,
With nerve and bravery we will traverse.

Once complete, is our journey just begun?
Empire for a future generation,
Or, disease disperse through our Universe?
