"Space, the final frontier”*
and somewhere there spaceship
Enterprise is exploring it
at the WARP speed

And no matter that
it happens only thanks
to author's bold imagination.
It's really fascinating

The search for new
civilizations is within our
reach although methods, available
resources are definitively different

However, we've already made
some progress. Reality caught
up with the future.
We're crossing new impossible

We do this, because
we want get to
know our place in
the uncharted, wondrous Universe

The greatest quest of
mankind hasn't started yet.
When it does, we'll
follow** captain's Pickard crew.

* One of the most famous opening phrase of the TV series.
** boldly
