Magellan (Venus Radar Mapper)

More music in 7/4. In D. Oh yes and there is a short key change (to C).

Magellan (Venus Radar Mapper)

Verse 1:
Mapping Venus
Mapping Venus
Mapping Venus
Mapping the globe on Venus

Trying to find
What is down there
What is hidden below
On this hot and distant world

Chorus 1:
Magellan - Venus Radar Mapper
powered by two square solar arrays,
The radar with:

• synthetic aperture radar (SAR),
• altimetry (ALT),
• and radiometry (RAD)
  Each look overlapping those around

Verse 2:
So many firsts
Inertial Upper Stage booster
Launched from the Space Shuttle

aerobraking
Robotic Space Probe
two ATAC-16 computers

Chorus 2:
Repeat 3:

Verse 3:
Our sister planet revealed
Destroying every ship we send to it
With the hottest surface of any planet
Through its gaseous atmosphere
Magellan will look
4225 usable SAR imaging orbits
