How Sailing Ships Work
How fast will a solar sail get us to Mars?
Ship to Mars
The rocket ships are much to slow to make the trip to Mars.
Much like a trip around the world in tiny little cars.
A solar sail is just the thing to place upon our ship.
And make quick work of what till now has been a boring trip.
A solar sail speeds us along at near the speed of light.
Mere minutes to the planet Mars will make the trip seem right.
Long hours in my lab at night, so far has had no gain,
But when I dropped it on my toe, it gave me much great pain.
When finished this great sail of ours will take us anywhere.
And you can bet we’ll get to Mars and then our poems share.
So, I will work to get it done, to build this solar sail,
And we will get to planet Mars much faster than e-mail.
Who would have thought the day would come when email would be slow?
So build your solar sail my friend and off to Mars we’ll go.
But can you build a party barge that all our friends may sit?
For some will surely be quite hurt if they can not all fit!
