NASA Intern Music Video

NASA is committed to landing American astronauts, including the first woman and the next man, on the Moon by 2024. Through the agency’s Artemis lunar exploration program, we will use innovative new technologies and systems to explore more of the Moon than ever before. We will collaborate with our commercial and international partners to establish sustainable missions by 2028. And then we will use what we learn on and around the Moon to take the next giant leap – sending astronauts to Mars.

The “NASA” Intern Music Video is a volunteer outreach video project created by the students of NASA's Johnson Space Center. It was created as an educational parody of Ariana Grande's NASA song. The lyrics and scenes in the video have been re-imagined in order to inform the public about the amazing work going on at NASA and the Johnson Space Center.

Lyrics:
We'd rather be on the moon tonight, say hello from the control room tonight,
Don’t want gravity pulling on us tonight, up here floating we just feel so free tonight,
Think we're better off roving on Mars tonight, no opportunity to call home tonight,
Just making' sure Orion's good on fuel tonight, on our way to Mars but earth is still in site

Yeah we're just saying failure is not an option or an issue,
Oh, our mission is the goal that we commit to and the science that we do is beneficial,
We'll explore the universe because we're N-A-S-A,
Out of this world, going to space, going to space, yeah we're going to…
Going to the moon, space, going to space, going to space yeah, we're going to space (N-A-S-A),
Out of this world, going to space, going to space, yeah we're going to…
Going on to Mars, space, going to space, going to space, yea, we're going to space (N-A-S-A)

Bottom line,
We got reputation for that space flight, everybody knows we're working day and night,
It ain't nothing wrong with saying we're in our prime,
With our eyes, surely we will witness another earth rise, SLS will take our dreams beyond the skies,
First stage will rise and shine, zoom past horizon line,

Yeah we're just saying failure is not an option or an issue,
Oh, our mission is the goal that we commit to and the science that we do is beneficial,
We'll explore the universe because we're N-A-S-A,
Out of this world, going to space, going to space, yeah we're going to…
Going to the moon, space, going to space, going to space yeah, we're going to space (N-A-S-A),
Out of this world, going to space, going to space, yeah we're going to…
Going on to Mars, space, going to space, going to space, yea, we're going to space (N-A-S-A)

You may not believe it but there's so much to discover,
ISS in orbit, oh, the views will make you wonder,
Back to lunar orbit there is still more to uncover,
(Back to lunar orbit there is still more to uncover)
ISS in orbit, oh, the views will make you wonder,
(ISS in orbit, oh, the views will make you wonder)
We'd rather be on the moon tonight, mmm, say hello from the control room tonight, mmmm mmm
