Rocket Girls

Synopsis: When Yukari Morita decided to look for her missing father, who disappeared in the southern seas, she had no idea how far her journey would take her. Just traveling to the Solomon Islands is a long way for a high school girl to stand out, but Yukari finds a Solomon Space Association astronaut, who tried to build a rocket enough to launch a man into space.

Knowing Petite Yukari, however, the director of SSA Nasuda realizes that she is small enough to climb a less powerful rocket that SSA has already built! Then he offers an agreement: If Yukari agree to become her astronaut, the SSA will help find her missing father! Will Yukari have the right things to explode in the wildest search for space of all time?
