But whatever happens, Starr knows her new life will be out of this world!

Starr and her family have explored space before, but nothing could have prepared them for Venus. It's a mysterious planet covered by clouds and, up until now, no one has ever even seen the surface. When the other kids on board start bullying Starr, the mission becomes harder than she ever imagined.
