1
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:13,070
When I was a child I tuned in to a beautiful fantasy

2
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:21,220
Humans and Vulcans and peace in the cosmic community

3
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:26,760
I'd look up to the sky at night

4
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,680
And I'd ask myself could it be right

5
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:35,250
Are there planets like ours around faraway stars

6
00:00:35,250 --> 00:00:39,230
Or are we all alone on our planet Earth home?

7
00:00:39,230 --> 00:00:43,600
Are we whirling around imperceptibly

8
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:48,030
Caught up in the dances of gravity

9
00:00:48,030 --> 00:00:52,170
A random Galactic anomaly

10
00:00:52,170 --> 00:00:56,550
Nine planets around the Sun

11
00:00:56,550 --> 00:01:00,740
Spinning and swirling, twirling and whirling

12
00:01:00,740 --> 00:01:04,660
Around the Sun

13
00:01:04,660 --> 00:01:11,330
Time marches on and astronomers hone their technology

14
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:18,970
Point their scopes to the sky with an eye to unravelling the mystery

15
00:01:20,850 --> 00:01:24,970
And like the faintest of calls in the night

16
00:01:24,970 --> 00:01:28,940
Lies a signal within a star's light

17
00:01:28,940 --> 00:01:33,410
Like a beacon of hope in your burnt umber sky

18
00:01:33,410 --> 00:01:38,100
The rising of 51 Pegasi

19
00:01:38,100 --> 00:01:41,630
Dancing almost imperceptibly

20
00:01:42,190 --> 00:01:45,960
Backward and forward from gravity

21
00:01:45,960 --> 00:01:49,990
A companion of closest proximity

22
00:01:49,990 --> 00:01:54,390
A planet around a star

23
00:01:54,390 --> 00:01:58,750
At the edge of the Galaxy, clusters of stars

24
00:01:58,750 --> 00:02:03,160
Their members a billion years older than ours

25
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:09,300
Hold wobbles of planets around their pulsars

26
00:02:09,900 --> 00:02:14,370
They've had eons more time than we

27
00:02:14,370 --> 00:02:18,400
Is it possible, could it be?

28
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:22,850
Am I watching you, watching me?

29
00:02:22,850 --> 00:02:27,030
And with more planets than stars in the galaxy

30
00:02:27,030 --> 00:02:31,300
The dream has become a reality

31
00:02:31,300 --> 00:02:35,710
We're not quite as alone as we used to be

32
00:02:35,710 --> 00:02:40,020
There are planets around the stars

33
00:02:40,020 --> 00:02:44,290
Planets around the stars

34
00:02:44,290 --> 00:02:48,500
Spinning and swirling, twirling and whirling

35
00:02:48,500 --> 00:02:52,170
Around the stars

36
00:02:52,170 --> 00:02:56,380
Backward and forward, they're coming and going

37
00:02:56,380 --> 00:03:00,270
Around the stars

38
00:03:00,270 --> 00:03:04,450
Daytime and nighttime, summer and winter

39
00:03:04,450 --> 00:03:08,530
Around the stars

40
00:03:08,530 --> 00:03:12,680
We've finally found them, there's planets around them

41
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:19,800
Around the stars
