narrator:
the next day
when morning came
the mortar dried
on the finished satellite
herschel smiled
anna cried as rose painted
the word sagitta on the side

herschel:
just like our game on the ship
rose:
how so?

herschel:
this satellite will live among the stars, miss
stratford. she will forever be known as the
sagitta

rose:
‘followed by dreamers everywhere’
i could get used to adventure

herschel:
exploring the heights

rose:
and starting anew

rose, herschel:
i could get used to adventure

rose:
after years of imagining

herschel:
it’s finally happening
rose:
and i can share it with…

anna:
hershey! we did it!

herschel:
(catching himself) yes, nova, we did it!

anna:
rose, darling, isn’t it something?

rose:
it’s amazing, anna, congratulations

narrator:
samuel sat atop the satellite
with a notebook in his hand
he had to write final observations
before the launch sequence began

samuel:
words don’t often fail me
but looking down along this ramp
towards the flywheels spinning
then across the jungle and the camp
i wish that i could draw!
the morning sky is perfect
not a single cloud can be seen
soon the sphere will sling*shot
to beyond from here, between
margaret:
always with your notebook

samuel:
(off guard) margaret, hi * no, i mean * yes. (sighs)
i just want to remember this moment

margaret:
the sphere’s top hatch is still open

samuel:
i can’t bring myself to close it. once it’s shut*

margaret:
it’s over?

samuel:
what’s going to happen afterwards? do we stay
in township number nine? do we stay
together? are you and i going to be okay? (beat)
we barely talk anymore

margaret:
i’ve lived so long in shadows
that all i knew was dark
so i hurried to the sun, not thinking
at the first sign of a spark
now, you know belief is priceless
and sacred trust is to be earned
i wanted to believe you
and in the end, it left me burned
now, where we go from here
samuel, i don’t know…
(beat) wait, what’s that?
