For the soon-to-fall spacecraft: The Messenger


Inside of the propellant tank,
liquid sound resonates
You won't hear it,
because it's in space.

Thrusters feel lesser heat,
though the sun comes near.
Panel that's glowing blue,
the one rotates to tears.

Signals pump through antennas,
requiring a mission load of datas.
batteries are filled full
for spectrometers and cameras.

A round sphere, two ridges,
three craters and four scraps.
Five streaks on the south,
and water ice that lasts.

With red,navy and green,
a scene never been seen.
what else it could offer?
an image telling the temperature.

what else it would offer,
above fifteen kilometers?
above ten kilometers?
above five kilometers?

Transmittions to the Messenger.
Transmittions to the Messenger.
Response seems to take longer
Is it too loud to hear?

What else it could offer?
Mercury has a hard surface.
what else it would've offered?
BepiColumbo will bring back the answer.
