Look Up! · S1 E1 · Aura Looks Up

Look Up! Four panels: Aura lying in the grass asks Daddy 'when does it get dark dark?'; a meteor whooshes across the sky; Daddy throws his hands up shouting 'A meteor! A space rock on fire!'; the family sits together looking up at the moon, Aura whispers 'whoa.'

A simple question. A first encounter. The night Aura saw a space rock catch fire in the sky.

It was a quiet evening in Florida. Aura lay in the grass, looking up at the deep purple sky, and asked the kind of question only a seven-year-old can ask. Then the sky answered her with a streak of fire. Daddy lost his mind explaining it. The whole family ended up watching the moon together, awestruck.
