I wish I could also fly into space and visit other planets," was Rohan’s thought when the teacher was telling them facts about the universe. When she gave them the assignment to make a space craft, he was really excited. “Get out of the way. The space ship is here,” screamed Sameer dashing towards Rohan as soon as the teacher left. “Must be the Martians come to watch the Batman movie,” Yelled Dipti and the whole class laughed.

It took all three of them a week to build the space craft. “We have to give it a name,” Dipti implored. After an hour of discussion, they agreed upon ‘Skippy’.

Rohan kept thinking about ‘Skippy’ and what if there were people on other planet through out the day.

Rohan, Rohan, come out and meet Zappy.” He heard Sameer’s voice. He walked to the garden and saw Sameer and Dipti standing next to ‘Skippy’ in the garden. And there was a fat round person with them. “Zappy is from planet Zoom in another galaxy,” introduced Dipti excitedly. “His ship got damaged and he wants to go back to his planet.” “If you can help me, I will take you to meet my parents,” said zappy. His voice sounded like a robot—metallic but friendly.
