Going to Mars

Going to Mars

Part 1

Mars oh, it seems so far

 Thought I could only wish upon a star

Though every night it seems we get closer

  I am starting to lose closure 

Now it is time for packing

No time for slacking 

What should I bring 

Maybe my wedding ring 

As my husband fights on earth 

I move on to new turf 

Now i’m on getting on the rocket 

Hope I don’t throw my shoulder out of socket

Hope I make without losing my locket

I will try to keep it in my pocket

Hope is the only thing I have 

There is no one to pave my path

Day 127 almost their

I can almost smell the martian air

Hope we land safely 

I think about it daily 

I am starting to feel hazy

4 more days till arrival

This spaceship is starting to feel like my rival

I can see it in the distance

Just have to have patience

Hold tight for impact 

We hit the ground and we are still intact

I hope it is safe 

Just have to have faith

I step off the ship 

Bite my lower lip

It’s everything I could of hoped of

Part 2

What do I see 

I think we found our key

We have found our escape 

It has been a long wait

But how do we get them to stay

We need them to see how wonderful it is here

Little do they know that soon they might disappear

“Hello beings of earth, now your on our turf”

“This place is even better than earth”

Look at our food

Ready to be chewed

It would be just crude 

Not to move

Leave your ship

Promise we won’t dip

I will even bet my poker chip

We will help you get settled

Let me just take your big piece of metal

“Here is your house”

Little do they know soon mars will be quiet as a mouse

Ok aliens time to get moving  

This is our time for proving 

Lets move to saturn

Leave this blank pattern

Part 1

Jessie woke up from her sleep. 

She heard a knock on her door. 

She went down stairs and opened the door.

 jimmy:(her manager at nasa) today is your mission to go to the moon. Did you get prepared? 

Jessie: Yes, I am ready. 

“They both leave to go to the rocket launch”. 

Jessie: how long till we get on the rocket jimmy?

Jimmy: Probably right now we got everything ready. 

“They get on the rocket ship” timmy: ready for blast off  

10..9.. 8..7..6. 5..4..3..2..1 BLAST OFF.

“couple hours later they landed on the moon” 

                                       Part 2 

                                                      alien point of view. 

The Efil saw a giant cylinder come from the sky landing on its planet. 

I was curious, when it landed I ran up to the cylinder and people came out of it. 

I got scared and ran away Into my nest with my brothers and sisters. 

I think they saw me because they were going toward my nest. 

But then they put a flag right next to my nest. 

It was red and blue with white stars. 

Then they got back on the cylinder and flew away.

 EXTRA    Terry: I will be interviewing a retired astronaut today and see the risks and sacrifices on a space mission. Terry: Let’s start the interview “Jessie walks in” Jessie: i am an astronaut who went on the moon 2 decades ago and retired since then. Terry: Jessie, what do you think was the biggest risk of landing on the moon? Jessie: I think it’s when we almost ran out of oxygen so we had to use the space suits for oxygen. Terry: That sounds scary but did you still land on the moon? Jessie: yes we landed on the moon and we only ran out of oxygen on the way back to earth.

Terry: the guy who is interviewing the astronaut

Jessie: the astronaut who got to the moon

John: the camera guy, he doesn’t speak much
