ABC of space

Astronauts heading to the moon.
Buying their needed equipment, spending £135.
Coming to the flurry of constellations
Down and around the Earth
Every minute like an hour
Flying to their destination
Going forward through the ups and downs
Hadfield singing for his record, the first in space
In the sea of stars
Jumping through the space hatch and out into the unknown
Kingdom of the stars is being reached once more
Lumbering on with their heavy suits
Minerals being collected from majestic asteroids
No coming back now
On till the rocket returns to Earth
Picking the best route around
Quotes that suggest the moon tastes good
Running through the open galaxies
Slumbering through the open world of stars
Their toilet clogged by Russians
Uranus infront of their eyes
Velenuis the asteroid rocketing through space
Wanting to stay longer
Xalmius the asteroid seeming to be racing another
You wouldn’t want to leave
Zalum being drilled for minerals
Thank you for reading!
The asteroids are real, they are just not well known.

Thank you happy_politics! This captures the imagination.
A gentle notice to others - We do NOT wish to see any A-Z's for now as there are some great examples for you to read and comment on! We would like posts from now on to be asking interesting questions, raising original ideas and giving developed opinions.

I loved all of the letters but what is Zalum
It is a minor asteroid known to be used for minerals and oil.

Really good, but i'm not sure if space equipment costs £135 (it really costs £9,259,620.00) Great work though!
Where did you get your figures from?
I meant to write only one piece of equipment, but thank you for pointing that out!
You are welcome

Wow. I love this A-Z so much. How did you come up with this? I would try doing this and get stuck on E. Absolutely amazing work.

Q: Does anyone have any good ideas for some of the letters? If so, I would love to see them!
