The light collects and swirls.
Streams of red and white, all poisonous,
They start to surround me as I plunge into the atmosphere.
I know one breath could kill me, but
The picture outside is still breathtaking.
I'm still falling.
I will be the first person ever.
I will be the last person ever.
To visit Jupiter.
To see this wondrous sight.
I'm still falling.
This was my mission.
And even though I know I'll never make it home again,
The view outside makes it almost worth it.
