Space Science

By Anantjit Chander

In the vast expanse of endless night,

Where stars twinkle, pure and bright,

We seek to understand the mystery

Of the universe's vast history.

With telescopes and probes we explore,

Seeking answers that we've yet to score,

From the planets in our solar system

To the black holes that defy definition.

We learn of gravity's gentle tug,

And the forces that celestial bodies hug,

We marvel at the cosmic ballet,

As galaxies dance in a grand display.

We seek the origins of life and light,

And the secrets that lie beyond our sight,

From the mysteries of dark matter,

To the birth of stars that fiercely scatter.

We ponder the existence of alien life,

And whether we'll one day meet in strife,

We seek to unlock the secrets of the universe,

And perhaps find our place in its diverse.

But in our quest for knowledge and insight,

We must not forget the beauty of the night,

The twinkling stars that light the way,

And the wonder of the cosmos on display.

So let us continue to explore and seek,

To learn and discover, each week to week,

And may our journey among the stars,

Bring us closer to understanding who we are.
