55 - Cosmic Voyage(r)


Scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory
stood transfixed
at a bank of monitors
as Voyager pressed against
the foamy walls of the heliospheric bubble.
The little probe was on the verge
of piercing the outer shell of our solar system.
“I wonder what the hole in the bubble will do to us?”, one asked aloud.
