Join Chloe Savage – winner of the Waterstones Children's Book Prize 2024: Best Illustrated Book – on a journey across the cosmos with Commander Julia, her team of astro scientists and her trusty dog, Khan, as they search for life in the stars. Travelling for ten years in their packed spaceship, they visit countless moons and planets of every size and colour, searching for the answer to the greatest question of all: "Are we alone?"

And, just as they’re about to give up … Khan leads them to an incredible discovery – the existence of a (friendly!) alien race. Getting to know this welcoming species calls into question everything these space explorers have ever known – about what to do next, who they are, and what it means to have a home...
