International Asteroid Day

In the vast expanse where galaxies swirl,
Amidst celestial bodies that dance and twirl,
There lies a day of great importance and might,
“International Asteroid Day”, shining with light…

On this day, we gather to remember with care,
The impact that asteroids have had to bear,
Their fiery collisions, the chaos they bring,
A reminder that our future truly does cling…

For in the depths of space, they silently roam,
A potential danger to our earthly home,
But fear not, dear beings, for knowledge we seek,
To uncover the secrets that asteroids keep…

Through science and research, we boldly explore,
To understand these rocks and so much more,
Observatories scanning the cosmic abyss,
Mapping their paths, unraveling their twist…

With each passing year, our understanding grows,
Unlocking the mysteries that always impose,
From near-Earth objects to distant debris,
We strive to protect our planet with glee…

International Asteroid Day, a beacon of hope,
Inspiring action, urging us to cope,
To seek innovative ways, stand shoulder to shoulder,
Deflecting asteroids, becoming bolder…

With advancements in technology, we have the might,
To divert these threats, keeping us safe at night,
From gentle nudges to powerful thrust,
Humanity unites, in science we trust…

As we gaze at the heavens with wide-eyed wonder,
We ponder the future, we dare to ponder,
A future where knowledge reigns supreme,
Shielding our planet, like a cosmic dream…

So come together, let’s raise our voice,
For International Asteroid Day, let’s rejoice,
For in the face of challenges yet unseen,
We’ll pave a path bright, with knowledge keen…
