Nightflight to Venus - The moment is here

Nightflight to Venus nightflight to Venus

Ladies and gentlemen we have
Had a successful take-off
On this first night flight to Venus
Our flying time will be eight hours
You'll be travelling at a speed of 2
183 miles per second
That is seven and one half
Million miles per hour
The distance from mother earth to Venus is
60 million miles at this time

To your left you can see the
Mountains of the moon and right
In the centre, under a huge plastic bubble
Moon City a boomtown if ever there was one
Because of the huge gold and diamond veins
As for Venus
It took almost ninety years to cool down the
Planet from it's 500 degrees To the current
Pleasant 75 degrees and to
Transform the atmosphere
To make it habitable For Earths people

Nightflight to Venus - Way out there in space
Nightflight to Venus - Our
New favourite place
Nightflight to Venus - All systems are go
Nightflight to Venus - The sky is a-glow

Captain - unidentified object
At eight o'clock two million miles away

Stand by for emergency manoeuver

Object coming closer with the speed of light
We have eight more seconds
Object coming closer
We have five more seconds

Change course by 46 degrees order executed

That was a close one ladies and gentlemen
A meteor just passed us on
It's way to infinity
Well, you can see, even in space
Traffic is getting heavier all the time

Ladies and gentlemen in a few minutes we
Are going to be landing on Venus
Push the button on your left side
The safety mechanism will do the rest for you
We hope you enjoyed the world's
First night flight to Venus
Have a good time there
