“Earth control to Major Tom”

David Bowie sang this tune,

It helped me to imagine

The men walking on the moon.

Who would have thought it could happen?

“Not in our lifetime”, we’d say.

But it definitely did, I assure you.

Oh what an amazing day.

The furthest in space I’ve ever travelled

Was in a jumbo jet,

But looking down on those clouds

Was the closest I’d ever get.
