Replying to
Asteroid, inner solar system,
Minor planets, dwarf planets, worlds of utmost wisdom.
Rocky or metallic, no atmosphere to be found,
Between Mars and Jupiter, many of you abound.
Spacecraft observe you, Galileo was the first,
NASA and JAXA within your worlds immersed.

Replying to
Exoplanet, exoplanet, beyond our solar system,
Dancing in the dark, a world of hidden wisdom.
To dance with stars, or dance alone,
Your mystery revealing, much to be known.
Planets of such intrigue, inspiring us each day,
How many of you hide, within the Milky Way.
