Original: “What a Wonderful World” by Bob Thiele and George David Weiss
Parody lyrics: Elizabeth Landau
I see spacecraft launch, they’re flying so far
Someday they’ll go to a nearby star
And I’ll see for myself
TRAPPIST-wonderful worlds
I’ll see seven globes
With orbits so tight
Each one might be
Half in day and half in night
But I’ll see for myself
TRAPPIST-wonderful worlds
So far we’ve looked with Spitzer, Hubble
TRAPPIST and K2
We’ll find out even more when we deploy James W.
These planets must be rocky
Cause of their density
If you like Earth, you’ll love TRAPPIST-1e
I’ll see orange skies
With the red dwarf’s glow
Maybe there’s ocean, maybe there’s snow
But I’ll see for myself
TRAPPIST-wonderful worlds
And we’ll see for ourselves
TRAPPIST-wonderful worlds
