Best Nasa Poems
My name is etched
On Insight Lander
On Martian soil
It waits for me
To be where gravity is low
So be careful where you go
Mars’ atmosphere has little air
So beware
My name’s still etched
On Insight Lander
Along with miliions
Who like me dream
If we can get to you
Insight Lander
Your solar panels
We’ll surely clean

Five years was their prediction of my lifespan.
Approaching forty-five,
I have a lot to show and less to say.
Photography was never my thing
But I have the most impactful photo of the Earth.
a blurry dot in a sunbeam
Six billion kilometres away.
Crawling through space
at 61,500 kilometres in an hour,
I'll soon lose my makers
to the darkness of space;
and meet my maker(s)
in the darkness of space.
But my voyage will not end
as I have a new friend to meet.
In forty thousand years,
I'll see a friend I only know as
AC+79 3888.
through the fringes of our solar system,
In the nihility of space,
I stand as a testament
of Humans, their ingenuity
and mainly of their underestimation
23.3 billion kilometres
That's how far home is.
But I am home;
Just not the one where I was made.
They thought I'll be a small but significant "Voyager"
I think they were wrong.

Mars InSight Mission
revealing the heart of Mars-
boarding pass received
two million plus names on board
earning frequent flyer miles

We know when NASA lands on Earth
they'll claim to come in peace.
That's when we'll lead them all to water
and laugh till we can't cease.
We'll show them where to plant their flag
and praise their golden record.
We'll tell them they have reached the stars
and dance till we get deckered.
They'll probably say we came from monkeys
and monkeys came from fish.
Then tell us that we're one big bang
and God's not worth the wish.
They'll rape our land of every mineral
and drill for all it's oil.
Then share their governed currency
to take away our spoil.
Then when our time is at an end
they'll leave for outer space.
The search going on for other planets
and more intelligent race.

Angry clouds were above
Displaying hatred not love
With an angry growl
Came a heavenly howl
There are energy impulses
Crackling lights dished out in doses
Joined the powerful teaming downpour
Angels sending a message about this star gazing tour
Two men scheduled to be shot in the air
No return date set for the galactic dare
It took a little time
But the sun came out to shine
A natural cosmic luring test
Challenging earthlings wanted to leave their nest
Launch countdown never stopped
Plan continued from the pad lot
After placing the pair in seated positions
Patiently waiting for the ‘go’ decision
Commanding lift starting the space station mission
Clock under twenty
Big business experimenting investing their money
Word came to abort
Due to the weather who was the true judicial court
Safety concerns were the reasons
Canceling the spectacle during Florida’s rainy season
Temporary relieving the responsibilities for the dragon crew
Delaying a dream ready to come true
Mother Nature commanding man to be told
“This adventurous travel must be put on hold!
Until a new window open soon
And then it can resume
A space junket to the resort orbiting the moon”
Man penciled in a date
Saturday afternoon sounds great
Still the meteorology influence will have the final say
About sending this peaceful rocket on its way

To the moon and back
was once a far-away goal
‘Course we already did that
fifty-plus years ago
How about Mars, Venus
Jupiter or Saturn
Why repeat what we’ve done
If there’s no glory to earn

the blue print glows back at my sight
it's getting clearer and clearer
and it isn't in my rear view mirror
like eddie said
it's straight ahead
the thirteen are anxious about revolution
they pray for anonymous contribution
the rotchild will kill the rothschild
the child was red all from the start
he needed pink ...the liberal thing
red white and blue liberte....the idea enslaved you
the cresent and the star pay homage to ishtar
the eagle has a thing for the sun
two headed to the east and west
what good is a peaceful protest
blvatsky and her master afghani
pike told mazzini ; you get the black pope ,I'll get the white
ibn wahab and hasan sabah will do what's right
bulan turned jew the talmud is depending on you
encourage your lust , the green said in god we trust
the law took at freedom it's last draw
the zen on the mountain
enjoying a pseudoholy fountain
a meeting was held on the water ,
the ascended masters met the fallen ones
oracles the disaster nuns
karamites once stole the black stone
a silver womb ornament
signaling fascistic involvement
yiddish and hebrew
the wait for nibiru
NASA crowned NAZI
the hindu celebrated the swastika
humanity cusified behind a crooked cross
change is the significance of the moths
the kaaba wasn't a cube
ask the golden ratio
The Creator doesn't need a terminator
oh the AI the machines ..have you looked at your life lately
go recharge or wake up free of charge

To Babylonians, Ptolemy (and me),
The night sky was a glittering sea.
They called them all stars
But (including Mars)
These “observers” were startled to see…
That charting their heavenly courses
And imagining bears, crabs and horses
They moved thru the seasons
But for confounding reasons
Some obeyed differing forces.
They called them “Wandering Stars”.
(We know planets are now what they are.)
But since we conquered the moon,
Who’d have thought that so soon,
From THEIR faces we'd look back at ours.
So transmission lag notwithstanding,
The space craft survived thru its landing,
But a plan to research
From an aerial perch
Was at one time beyond understanding.
Over six years a drone flight was planned.
Could it take off and land on command?
NASA asked it to fly
And did it comply?

NASA
Sure put on busy on it’s peak
It’s true nothing to speak
Either busy on home work
Or working from home’s sake
At a time
The Globe is turned up side down like a roti
COVID 19 stands in tact still
To remain all a total standstill
Globe is defunct like in no current day
Traffic movements no at all today
Up and down ways
North and South may
Earth is escaped for sometimes of pollution
Carbon that cars burn in no trace even for want of medicine
It’s time to look at the Ozone’s leak
To see it’s all right now with all sort lacks
Whether it’s still remains weak?
Whether to extend what’s happening on Earth now for a further week?

I stand by my assertion Mars has next-to-zero AIR
That justifies my skeptical view AIRcraft can't fly there
But in my poem composing, I did leave myself an 'out'
I can't have people thinking I'm a foolish clueless lout!
We knew already JPL and NASA pull such tricks
as to convince Terrestrials they're Total Clever Dicks
Inventive and resourceful and most ingenious
They made an 'Ingenuity' whose flights were seen by us!
My admiration for their work is second to no one.
I learn from them, my mind expands, with elements of fun...
Our Solar System's large enough to hold much mystery
So can those T.C.D.s progress in solving them? Let's see!

Your 'Perseverance' far away
We hear has landed just this day.
Thirty million miles and more,
Now in that crater it explore,
And take samples to analyse.
Could we be in for big surprise?
Was that 'Red Planet' once alive?
And why did life there not survive?
Maybe environmental stress,
That left all life-forms in a mess.
Perhaps, in this, there is a clue
As to what climate change can do.
I now reflect on our planet.
And see how we are wrecking it.
