...with undiminished wonder


"as long as there have been humans
we have searched for our place in the cosmos
where are we?
who are we?

"we find that we live on an insignificant planet
of a humdrum star
lost in a galaxy
tucked away in some forgotten corner
of a universe
in which there are far more galaxies
than people

"we make our world significant
by the courage of our questions
and by the depth of our answers

"we embarked on our journey to the stars
with a question first framed
in the childhood of our species
and in each generation
asked anew
with undiminished wonder:

"what are the stars?"
