But there was one planet with the coolest 24 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: moon by far. Their moon was in the shape of 25 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: a flower. This planet, appropriately called Planet Moonflower, was a 26 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: helpful planet. Their space force was made of kind children 27 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: who answered calls of help from all across space. One day, 28 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: Space Command received a signal for help from space, but 29 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: they couldn't find its exact location. It wasn't coming from 30 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: any of the surrounding planets or from the flower shaped moon. 31 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: In fact, it seemed to be moving about space. 32 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 3: Is everyone ready for left off? 33 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: Space Command asked all of the kid astronauts on planet Moonflower. 34 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 1: The kids ran around collecting last minute items for their 35 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 1: flight before climbing aboard the spaceship and buckling in. Ready, 36 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: replied the Moonflower kids once they were all suited up 37 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: and strapped into their spaceship. 38 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 3: Okay, remember we aren't sure who was calling for help 39 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 3: or where they're calling from, so be on the lookout 40 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:36,839 Speaker 3: for anything suspicious. Your spaceship will be able to pick 41 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 3: up any signals sent while you were up there. I'll 42 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 3: begin the countdown three two, one. Blast off. 43 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: The rockets roared in The Moonflower kids were pushed back 44 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: into their seats as the spaceship's rockets. 45 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 2: Launched them into space. 46 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: Whoa, they shouted in excitement as they flew through Moonflowers atmosphere. 47 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: Once they entered space, the ship began to slow down, 48 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: and they unbuckled from their seats. 49 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 4: Whoa look at the petals on the moon. Wow, they're 50 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 4: so beautiful. 51 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: One of the astronauts called out to the others, and 52 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: everyone admired the colorful flower moon as they sailed around it. 53 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: It was quiet for a bit until the help signal 54 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: reached the ship. 55 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 4: It's coming from over there. 56 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: Cried one of the astronauts. Everyone scrambled toward a window 57 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: and peeked out. They saw something flashed through the sky 58 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: behind the Moon. After it, they shouted as one of 59 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: them punched the coordinates into spaceship's navigational system. They zoomed 60 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: behind the Moon and looked around. Further away, they spotted 61 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: the flaming tail of something. The signals it's coming from that. 62 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,919 Speaker 1: The spaceship followed after it wait in a bo faster. 63 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 1: The spaceship picked up speed in response. The flaming tail 64 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: became longer and larger the closer they got to it. 65 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 1: They could now see that it was a comet. Finally, 66 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: the moon Flowership caught up and flew right beside it. 67 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: On top of the comet was someone was trying to 68 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 1: hold on to it. Old dear, has it zoomed through space. 69 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 3: Up there. 70 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 4: Look, there's an alien. They must have set the help signal. 71 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: The astronauts watched as the purple and green alien lifted 72 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: one of its forearms to wave the other three arms 73 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: said firmly gripped to the speeding commet, and its two 74 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 1: antennas were blowing behind it from the speed it was traveling. 75 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 4: We need to help it. 76 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,039 Speaker 1: Does anyone have any ideas He'll go. 77 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,720 Speaker 2: Out and jump onto the comet. Yeah, I can do that, 78 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 2: But how will you get back? Then you'll be stuck forever. 79 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 4: I can lean out over the outside and throw in 80 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 4: the rope towards the alien. Then we can pull them back. 81 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 2: Do you see the size of the alien? No? Way? 82 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 1: And then yet another astronaut spoke. 83 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 2: Up Little plums brought together out of a loon. 84 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: The astronauts all agreed that teamwork was the best, and 85 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: together they found a rope. 86 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 2: And got in line. All wind up. 87 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: The astronauts held onto the rope before jumping one by 88 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: one out of the spaceship toward the common that was 89 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: zipping along beside them. 90 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 2: The Moonflower team landed. 91 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: One by one onto the comet and grabbed the alien's hands. 92 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: Once a few of them had gotten hold of the alien. 93 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: They tied the rope around him, and they all held 94 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 1: the rope tightly, and one by one they jumped back 95 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 1: off of the comet towards their spaceship. Almost everyone was 96 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 1: back inside. Oh no one.

Finally, 101 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: the alien reached the spaceship and they all worked together 102 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: to pull him inside. 103 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 4: Bababe, well, babybe, Thank you, babybe.

The alien nodded happily, 113 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 1: so the Moonflower astronauts and their new alien friend all 114 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: set their course back to planet Moonflower, where they ate 115 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: their snack and celebrated another successful mission thanks to teamwork.
