Quest

The first exploration was to the moon
 Where we saw how its craters are hewn
 We have orbited Jupiter to unveil the shroud
 and unlocked the mystery beneath its dense cloud,
 Man's curiousity has taken him to Mars
 He's seen Saturn's rings as he journeyed among the stars,
 Traveling to planets light years away
 To reveal mysteries long held at bay
 Exploring the universe is the ultimate goal
 But they must avoid the deadly black hole,
 and as the technology does improve
 To colonize other planets is the next move

God created everything, so there could be life out there somewhere, beyond earth. It's fascinating to think about. I think I'll stay here, while others figure it out. Many wonderful blessings to you, Joseph. :) Hugs, Brandy

Well written Joseph. Did you know that out of all the space missions including the Hubble telescope and the James Webb telescope there has not been one sighting, photograph or any evidence of life other than earth. Not a single reported UFO in space. I personally find that significant. I enjoyed the read Joseph and love the subject.

It is amazing that other beings arent out there, or maybe we havent found them yet, Earth is the Jewel among the planets
