The Cult of the Probe - In Its Entirety

[Piper]

The reverse-translation is intriguing. Perhaps this translator s/w is speaking in tongues?:

Our Perhaps ,
quidnam monastic rule upon circle ,
to ratify to emerge your beam ,
your hard stone to send forward ,
your knowledge knowledge will be complete ,
upon Earth circle ,
when this is upon Moon circle.
To give out we today our daily moon statue.
And to pardon we our to shave and to build error ,
When we to pardon quae can't to call together out of imperious when metric.
And lead we not upon signal loss ,
Nothwithstanding to liberate we out of viceroy quidnam cut our bag.

Hail Probe!!

TEN COMMANDMENTS OF THE PROBE

1) I am a jealous Probe. Thou shalt hold no other space exploration hardware over Me, nay, though it have stereo cameras and nice little solar panels.

2) Thou shalt not restrict my development budget, nay, though it be ever so big - even unto the 12th power of the dollar shall you render me.

3) Thou shalt not deorbit Me.

4) Thou shalt send Shuttles and other launch vehicles unto Me to recharge my batteries and give me a clean.

5) Thou shalt make appropriate "Oooh" and "Aaah" noises when I deliver unto you my data.

6) Try to get some coverage of Me in the media.

7) Thou shalt write to thy congressperson with demands that My budget be increased.

8) Thou shalt hold the sabbath day holy. On that day, thou mayest lay on the grass and attempt to discern me as I wheel around the sky. Thou shalt do no other thing.

9) For My sake, thou mayest not let homosexuals or women gaze upon My steely substance. They don't want to anyway, they're more interested in Oprah.

10) Thou shalt not invest in a more advanced R&D program to supercede me. For I am perfection already and my like shall never be seen again.

Two score and nine years ago, today, Almighty Probe set forth from Earth unto Heaven, desiring to "see the universe" and to "find Himself", aswell as to shine His countenance down upon us and to impart unto us His many beeps of celestial wisdom. May Probe continue to shine His countenance upon us, imparting wisdom to the worthy, and smiting the unbelieving with His might Ion Engine. HAIL PROBE!

HAPPY PROBE DAY!
