Bill Nye:
We are at a time in history where we can change the world
What do we want to pass on to future generations?
That we just stayed here on Earth, that we didn’t look out
to find out where we come from and are we alone?
No!
We want to pass on this joy. This excitement.
Neil deGrasse Tyson:
When a nation dreams big, everything falls into place.
Nye:
Beyond the horizon
Over the next hill
That’s where we make discoveries
Tyson:
That’s the next frontier
Nye:
It is in us to look farther and deeper
It’s deep within us
That is why we are all here
Over the next hill, beyond the horizon
Tyson:
Dream of tomorrow
Long for the open seas
Call for this adventure
Dream big
Dream of tomorrow
Long for the open seas
Emily Lakdawalla:
There are lots of huge frozen worlds
Caught beyond Neptune
Huge frozen worlds
Seek out these other worlds
Hundreds of other worlds
Caught beyond Neptune
Seek out these other worlds
Tyson:
Audacious visions have the power to alter mindsets
To change assumptions about what is possible
[refrain]
Nye:
If we are to discover life on another world,
It will change the way everyone feels about what it is to be a living thing in the Cosmos.
Tyson:
Is a virus alive? Is crystal alive?
Does life need this, does life need liquid water?
Is a virus alive? Does life have metabolism?
Does life need, life need, life need, life need this?
Is a virus alive? Is crystal alive?
They’re asking these questions
Bill Nye:
Working together I claim we can
Change the world!
Carl Sagan:
There’s just a tremendously exciting prospect called solar sailing
And it works exactly as an ordinary sailboat does
It takes you to where you wanna go
It’s a whole new kind of idea
It travels on the wind from the sun
X2
Tyson:
These dreams prevail in the citizen’s ambitions.
It is time to set sail for the 21st Century.
[refrain]
Tyson:
Find your place in space
Space is vast and unexplored
And there’s a lot of work to do.
