Coming in at the middle of the album, this song focuses on the astronaut being refueled and confident after his first failure. He now understands that he no hero. Instead he is just a man withs faults who is charged with a mission to save the world. Focusing on self belief, determination, and following through on things said and done, he powers on to find a new home for his people. This is the 7th track on the The Astronaut's Dilemma, the first album to be released by the LP Experiment.

An older, never recorded Serus Victoria song, finally brought to life 9 years later. Mistaken is the musings about teenage love at summer camp...how quickly it happens, how confusing it is, and how there is always ever a finite amount of time and romance.

Second track recorded as a solo artist. Moved by the idea of becoming a father, this was written as to be a lullaby for his first born son, Clark. Written and Arranged by Ben Porter Vocals, guitars, and bass - Ben Porter Keys - Travis Cibolski Recording, Mixing, and Mastering - Travis Cibolski

As his first recording as a solo artist, Ben wanted to try something new. Wanting to tell more of a folk tale and get away from the his typical song writing style, the song instead uses poetic verses and lacks an overall chorus that repeats throughout the entire song.

The Serus Victoria song that should have been but never was recorded is now redone here by The LP Experiment as part of The Astronaut's Dilemma. A false signal lures the astronaut towards what looks to be a quick answer to his problem, but is this just a siren's call...luring him closer to death?
