text: Yo, check it out, listen up, I got a story to tell
  'Bout microorganisms and how they mine so well
  They're diggin' in the rocks, extractin' elements
  Rare earths like REEs, that's what they represent
  
  We took it to space, the International Space Station
  To test the bioleaching, it's a dope exploration
  In microgravity, and Mars and Earth's gravity too
  With three microorganisms, see what they can do
  
  We designed a biomining reactor, it's all planned
  To see if REEs from basaltic rock could be at hand
  Sphingomonas desiccabilis, it's the real deal
  Boosted the leached concentrations, it made 'em feel
  
  No matter the gravity, it didn't matter at all
  The process worked fine, it stood tall
  Bacillus subtilis, though, it had a setback
  Its bioleaching efficacy, it started to retract
  
  Cupriavidus metallidurans, it didn't make a change
  Compared to non-biological controls, it stayed in its lane
  It shows the process is specific to microbes on Earth
  But in space biomining, there's potential and worth
  
  These results, they're showin' us the way
  Space biomining, it could be the future, hey!
  Advancin' human industry, takin' mining far and wide
  Beyond the boundaries of Earth, let's ride!
