Noticeably better episode than the previous one, but with a few problems here and there. This episode's about Astro's class going into space by themselves to observe a rocket. A bunch of kids in space unsupervised? Nothing can go wrong there, right? Well, basically everything does. I've always hated the fat rich kid, and in this episode he is especially annoying. Atlas is here too, because his story needs to be the most drawn out plot arc in the show for some reason. I honestly don't understand some of the choices made in this show. Overall though, the episode wasn't too bad. Just very underwhelming and at times, a bit annoying.

I've also thought about something regarding Astro's dog, Jump. Why is he there? I don't mean in the ship with the kids. I mean, why is he with Astro in the first place? Jump belonged to Astro's father Dr Tenma, so how come he's with Astro's family now? How did he get there? And more importantly, what happened to Dr Tenma? Why hasn't he been contacted by anyone about Astro's existence?
