+  <a href="http://terralang.org/">Terra</a> is a system programming language that is
+  embedded in and meta-programmed by Lua, which handles details like
+  conditional compilation, type systems, namespaces, and
+  templating/function specialization that are normally special
+  constructs in other languages. Terra code shares Lua's syntax and
+  control-flow constructs, and it can easily call Lua functions and vice
+  versa. Since the JIT compiler is available at runtime, libraries and
+  embedded domain specific languages can use it to dynamically generate
+  or auto-tune arbitrary high performance code with custom
+  optimizations.
+  </p>
+
+  <p>
+  Terra is backwards compatible with (and embeddable in) existing C code
+  and is likewise a small, monomorphic, statically-typed, compiled
+  language with manual memory management. There is also built-in support
+  for SIMD operations and other low-level features like non-temporal
+  writes and prefetches. Terra can optionally run independently from
+  LuaJIT and LLVM. In fact, if your final program doesn’t need Lua, you
+  can save Terra code into an object file, shared library, or
+  executable.
