Plot Summary: Asumi Kamogawa is a lonely girl raised by a widower father. Her mother was one of the many victims of a tragedy that occurred five years ago. A rocket launch turned into a disaster after the explosion of one of its boosters, thus casting it ultimately into an urban area. Despite that, Asumi can't help but passionately gaze at the starry skies as she dreams of one day becoming a rocket pilot.
