It begins with a white red blast.
Will the velocity ever last?
Takes much time to break that one rule.
Reaching for such heights makes one a fool.
Stage one is simple, there’s no doubt.
The engines come alive with a deafening shout.
Stage one the last barrier is broke.
The fire of human ingenuity is stoked.
Stage two the rocket leaves earth behind.
The view could only satisfy mankind.
The future is here. Space X, headed by Elon Musk, has invented the first soft landing rocket in human history. Just what is a soft landing rocket you ask?
Traditionally space rockets have one use, all fuel is used up and the rockets attached to the spacecraft burn up in atmosphere or crash in the ocean. With a soft landing rocket the rocket will enter in a controlled descent through atmosphere and then safely land at its launch point intact. This will cut the cost of space travel by seventy percent. Instead if costing fifty million dollars to launch a rocket, that same rocket would only cost seven million dollars
This is one of the most significant inventions the world has seen it will revolutionize space travel and human history.
Little Bo Peep, fat little sheep was once white as snow.
How it would, no one knew, and few could answer so.
Once it follow the shepherd whom guided it true.
Though need shear, the shepherd was told to shoo.
The sheep grow grotesque blackened by the time.
The shepherd still remembered when the sheep shined.
Eating fresh grass the sheep grazed lazily.
Would the wolf hunt it first one would wait and see.
Fierce and quick the wolf gobbled the once pure sheep.
Watching quietly the shepherd never spoke a peep.
For the past year I’ve laughed at everyone who watched Game of Thrones. I didn’t think much of the series, just that it seemed a little ridiculous. That was, of course, until Friday night, when I watched the first episode with a friend of mine.
I am now addicted.
Four days later, I’m almost done with the third season. The show is filled with never-ending suspense and action. It’s an intriguing mix of a make-believe world and our own history of lords and ladies, kings and queens, and even slavery.
The show is just a tad gory however. For someone who doesn’t like blood, it’s kind of gross. But overall, I think the show is fantastic.
