boudicathebrave:inkhat:Seems like a good day to repost this one.[image description: screenshot of a poem:“Eulogy For Spirit and OpportunityLeslie J. AndersonThe rovers are dying on Mars.Their springs and bolts and cogs dropinto the red sand.Their cameras clog with dirt. Their wheels freeze.They limp up hills and spread their solar panelslike hospital blankets.The technicians do not tell themabout the budget cuts, or the questions of purpose.They say, everything here is fine.Write if you find water.That is progress, and progressisn’t supposed to be sad.I will always live in a world where a manhas walked on the moon.I love you, Mars rovers.for traveling so far, as far as you could.Till your joints filled with the dust of strange places,and your signals dragged themselves hometo tell us the wonderful news,there is still no end of the world.” end description] -- source link
