To walk on land, like you and me.
Dinosaurs looked to the sky,
And some took off, and learned to fly.
Then some mammals tipped the scales,
Returned to sea – and became whales.
Destiny seems to persist
To change the way that life exists.
So, in some million years to come,
What will happen to our race?
Will we leave our earthly home
And adapt to live in space?...
