In a Tokyo of the near future, a young girl gazes at the stars with sorrow in her heart and hope in her eyes.

Asumi is one of many young aspirants dreaming of joining Japan’s first crewed space mission. But before any launch, like every true astronaut, she must prove she has the right stuff: enduring a grueling series of physical and mental trials to earn a coveted place at the elite Tokyo Space School.
