This character-animated story is about a firefly and a moth who always disagree about the nature of the starry night sky. They decide to settle their argument once and for all by blasting off into space. During their voyage, they learn that the stars and planets are very different types of objects, their size and how far away from us they are, and the fact that stars give off their own light while planets can only reflect the light of the sun.
