The Ninja, the Young Ninja, the Mane Six, the Williams sisters and P.I.X.A.L. arrived at Ninjago City Starlight Planetarium. As they went in, they meet Professor Chiron, an astronomer and a scientist who studied planets, stars and asteroids around outer space. Lloyd explained to Chiron about the discovery of the cosmic Cotton Candy Comet, and much to his excitement, he brings them to the Libra Observatory, and he takes a peek at the rare comet that Lloyd have told. The Ninja and the others take turns looking at the comet using a large golden telescope.

As the team walked with Chiron to the main planetarium, Michella and Kaitlyn then targeted the professor guiding the Ninja and the ponies all along. Kaitlyn then sneaks in at the main planetarium, where the professor showing the simulation of the cosmic wonders of the universe. The Ninja, the Mane Six, the Williams sisters and the Young Ninja made such awestruck sounds with the sight of the planets and stars around them. Jay also spots the Cotton Candy Comet during the simulation. After a view at the planetarium, Megan and Molly went to the gift shop to buy cosmic items, one of it is the cosmic gemstones.

While buying at the gift shop, Kaitlyn came at the planetarium and extracted Chiron's Potion Shard, and reveals it is not the true one. As Megan and Molly went back with souvenirs, they saw Chiron being attacked by Kaitlyn. The two transform into their Super Sailor forms, and came against Kaitlyn. She then summon a Podroid named Capricorn to stop the Sailor Sisters. The Hero Ninja, the Crystal Six, the Young Ninja and Samurai X came to aid the heroes help. Sailor Sky uses her golden scepter to defeat Capricorn using Golden Heart Crystal Elimination.

After Professor Chiron got recovered, Lloyd understands him about the rare comet that Ninjago and Equestria had never seen. Chiron recognised his passion for stargazing and such discoveries, so he gives Lloyd an Astronomy Newbie Badge. The other Ninja and the ponies were glad that Lloyd will make new discoveries beyond the universe.

### Friendship 101

**Lloyd**: Hi, today, we are curious about the Cotton Candy Comet passing by Ninjago City.

**Nelson**: This is very ideal for us to research about the surface of the comet and getting to know about the effects of this comet passing by.

**Lloyd**: If you and your friend want to learn more about stars, asteroids and comets in the sky, or when you can see the planets in our solar system, we called it stargazing.

**Nelson**: Stargazing is a perfect way to learn things about the stars shining through space, and people to relieve stress and find mental silence in all things astral.

**Lloyd**: Although you can't see some celestial objects with lights flooding in towns and cities, the best way is to find an open field for you to look at. Sitting in nature can help us to feel psychologically refreshed.

**Nelson**: You can bring your friends along as it may be better if we look at some stars and planets in the sky. You can also take up as a hobby when you study astronomy. Many observatories and planetariums also hold various stargazing events, so ask your parents if you want to go and see some stars in the sky, and you can make observations through.

**Lloyd**: So, if you are free, take a look at all the cosmic wonders beyond the universe. Stargazing is the wonderful way for you and your friends to enjoy. Until next time.
