Ireland floating in space, orbiting far above Earth. An asteroid is about to hit Earth. Earth is ablaze. Astronauts are climbing Ireland like a mountain, using ropes. Three cats are sitting on Ireland's rings. Ireland is full of craters like the moon, and has rings like Saturn. It is nighttime on Earth, daytime on Ireland. A NASA moonlander and Mars Explorer are sitting on Ireland's surface. The Moon is smiling. TEXT: Into Your Head dot I E.
