The women who did the math The man who tightened the screws Were once pushed away, The engines blowing steam in their faces. But now They wear the suits, The floor protects their faces from smoke. Once forgotten in the ground, They finally touch the stars.

Apollo II
The women who did the math The man who tightened the screws Were once pushed away, The engines blowing steam in their faces. But now They wear the suits, The floor protects their faces from smoke. Once forgotten in the ground, They finally touch the stars.
