Earth is not the end
My fellow
people, my fellow humans, my fellow earthlicans it is time for change
We humans
have always sought to discover the new lands and new areas available for us. Columbus found America ,
Marco Polo found China and
Vasco da Gama the passage to India
Now the
whole world is explored, we have nothing more to find, or at least that’s what
many believes.
Ney I say
to them since they have not looked up into the sky and seen the potentials of
the vast eternity.
I say, we
go and claim what’s rightfully ours as handed to us by god who gave us our
intellect and power.
We have the
technology
We have the
resources
We most
certainly have the will to improve and discover.
So let’s
take that leap that’s even bigger than the one Neil Armstrong took and let’s go
to explore space.
We are
fighting over land as it is now on earth, “buy land, god isn’t making anymore
of it” is one saying. And it might be true, however the true is that we got
more land than we can spare. Look at the moon, all empty and waiting to be
settled, to be part of the great history of man. We have mars as well that can
be our next great planet.
Scientists
have also discovered worlds similar to earth and these planets have the same conditions
on the matter of atmosphere and oxygen.
If we
should encounter sentient life we could learn from them and become and even
more prosperous society. And if they aren’t as peaceful as we are and make us
choose between fighting and submittance. They can rest assure that every man
and women will fight to end to preserve and keep the peace and freedom as we
percept it today.
This could be
the thing that unites humanity and makes us stronger as a species and living
being in the universe. Earth is not the end!
When I searched for topics i choose "living on the moon" since i figured i would give the most serious results.
SvaraRaderaThe first result was an article from the los angeles times which describes the plans of NASA on colonization of the moon. The text is pretty neutral and formal since its purpose is to enlighten the progress of space travel.
The second hit I got was a wikipedia article which is also very formal and objective. The text intends to be educational.
A very big part of the speech i wrote is based on the language. I choose to use the very kliché kind of language that we can see in movies and in video games.
