== Synopsis ==
One night, Zariel Campbell is in his room with his crush Kiana Park, looking at the stars and drawing them in his sketchbook. Suddenly, Kiana sees a shooting star and gets a vision of a spirit-like alien. Inspired, she connects the stars she drew with lines, creating his own constellation depicting the creature. The notebook then floats into the air and glows, and the creature comes out into the real world. She's an energetic spirit with the ability to fly. Kiana is shocked at first, but she quickly becomes ecstatic to see a real alien. The spirit then summons a pocket wormhole in Zariel's room, sucking the three of them into space. Kiana is amazed. As Zariel is floating along, he sees a planet coated in darkness. However, before Kiana can find out what exactly the planet is, she wakes up the next morning. At first, Kiana thinks that the encounter with Nova was a dream. Then, Zariel sees Nova floating around in his room. Nova flies out of Zariel's window, and Zariel calls Kiana so that they can go chase after Nova.
Before long, the two run out of energy due to not eating breakfast (Kiana) and not taking a nap after school (Zariel) and have to take a break. The teens pull their food out of their lunchboxes. The humanoid then flies toward Zariel, attracted by his vanilla jelly donut.
Nova then turns into an aura ball and falls asleep on top of Zariel and dreams about the Exarite deities who sent him to Earth. Specifically, Leo told her to find the lone Leonian (Zariel) and that Zariel and she were their only hopes.
"Find the lone Leonian. He's on Terra. You are our only hope, and so is he."
Nova then wakes up and senses that an alien spaceship is being chased by other malevolent ships. To rescue them, Nova opens another portal, enabling the spaceship to land on Terra. Out of the ship comes a group of aliens, and a robot.
Nonetheless, Kiana is able to communicate Zariel's and her own names to the aliens, and they reply with their names, Spark, Dawn, Sierra and Blaze. The bot introduces himself as Iron Heart, and Zariel says that the ship is called the Whitefang, they have been looking for an Exarite aura being. Zariel shows him Nova and asks if he's the one they're looking for. They say that it actually is.
Thrash tells Kiana to give Nova up because he needs her power. Kiana protests that Nova is not an item and that she and her brother will protect her. Meanwhile, Zariel charges at Thrash only to get a very painful kick in his gut. Their determination causes two Constellation Keys (specifically the Leo and Pavo Keys) and two Astral Knight Morphers to appear in front of Zariel and Kiana. They insert their keys into their morphers and shout, "Astral knight power, awaken!" In the end, Zariel and Kiana have morphed into the Astral Knights Red and Green Rangers, respectively.
The Rangers are shocked at first, but they quickly gets their minds together. As this happens, numerous suited Darkrain minions, called Darkdrones, charge them. At this moment, the Rangers fight the Darkdrones, and win despite them being outnumbered and being in the zero-gravity environment of space.
Nova, Zariel and Kiana board the ship, and they and Drago's crew are happy to have succeeded. Kiana thanks the others and gives Spark a high five, telling him that he'd like to become one of his friends. Nova is then tired, so she transforms Zariel's notebook into the Astral Codex and then turns into a ball of white aura.
"I think my Astral Codex burned up when I entered the Terran atmosphere, so anyway, lend me your notebook. I'll need to make a new one."
They don't have long to celebrate this, however. The ship is badly damaged and is falling back towards Terra. A gang of Terran high schoolers consisting of Nate Reyes-Hernandez, Amy Lin, Mizuki Aihara, Hikaru and Yuna Hoshina see this and confuse it for a meteor. The episode ends with the Naavik crashing into a mountain.
