'Twas the night before Space Age, and all through the base,

Not a machine was stirring, not even a trace.

The belts were all silent, the circuits at rest,

In hopes that new planets would soon be addressed.

When out of the darkness arose such a clatter,

I sprang to my screen to see what was the matter.

A rocket! A spaceship! New tech to explore!

To Vulcanis, Gleba, Fulgora, and more!

Across Aquilo’s oceans we’ll chart our way,

Sailing the stars on this grand launch day.

Happy launch day to all—as we turn the page,

Welcome, dear engineers, to the Space Age!
