Beaming a Beatle tune, Across the Universe, is a fanciful idea, <br />It will take 431 years, at the speed of light, to reach the star of the north, <br />Permission was given by all those involved to NASA, <br />It will be beamed like satellite television is to today, <br />Across the Universe will have to be decoded, <br />I wonder aliens have a company called DISH or DIRECT by the way, <br />The questions are: <br /> <br />1) If you are coordinating the target against you what see it's not there, <br /> Since the light that you see left the star back in1577, <br /> Who knows it will be now or in 2438 for that matter. <br />2) Polaris could exploding right now and we would not know it till 2438, <br />For us now living we would be dead or would we? <br />(see observation The Top) We can see it from Heaven. <br />Carl Sagan wanted to put a CD containing Here Comes the Sun on Voyager, <br />He was refused permission, <br />Because the owners of the song, <br />Thought it would copyright infringement. <br />The CD gold plated was to show pictures on earth, sounds on earth, <br />Classical music, various languages, <br />A repertoire of ethnomusicologistical instrumentation, <br />Pictures of us earthlings from birth. <br />The thought of an alien life force taking the song Here Comes the Sun for their own, <br />Was completely unbearable for APPLE, the publishing company, <br />Were the aliens a member of ASCAP or BMI? <br />But hopefully the intelligent life out there would get something good, <br />Besides all the news about Britney Spears. <br />(see observation The Ode to TMZ) <br />If there is life on the planets surrounding Polaris, they may RSVP, <br />We should get their response back 2880, in about 862 years. <br /> <br />(2-2-2008)<br /><br />Joe Rosochacki<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/it-s-like-shooting-fish-in-a-barrel-called-the-ocean-from-200-yards/
