They go to her home on an asteroid and play games in space. Robbie learns that kind and caring people can be found even in the farthest reaches of space. Robbie's adventures teach him important lessons about friendship, perseverance, flexibility, and the spirit of discovery that lives on in both humans and robots. There is no way he can miss his home and Professor Amelia as he goes through space, though. Robbie is determined to get back, and with Zara's help, he finds a strong portal into another world that can take him back to Earth. Robbie swears to return to Zara and turns on the entrance before leaving. He makes it back to Earth safely and lands in Professor Amelia's cozy workshop, where happy cheers greet him. Robbie encourages the kids in his neighborhood to dream big and see the world by telling them about his space travels and the samples he brought back. Robbie's work as an ambassador of love and awe for the universe goes on as he visits schools and libraries to inspire and question young minds. He tells them that even though space is very big and amazing, there is no place like home. Robin thinks about his amazing journey—the adventure of a little robot in space—every night as he looks up at the stars. His story is a celebration of the magic of dreams, the beauty of travel, and the eternal bonds that hold us all together in life's cozy workshop under the night sky. Here's how the story starts: Robbie was a cute little robot who used to live in a town on Earth, a small blue planet. Robbie wasn't like other robots; he was one of a kind and had a big dream: he wanted to go to space! The house of Robbie was tucked away in a quiet part of town, right next to Professor Amelia's workshop. It was a pretty small house with bright red and yellow paint and a white picket fence around the outside. Professor Amelia, the brilliant inventor, had brought Robbie to life in the workshop, which was full of cool toys and other fun things. What Robbie went through in life was anything but normal. He could have been happy working as Professor Amelia's helpful helper, but he had always been interested in the night sky, especially the stars that sparkled in it. In his small, mechanical heart was a huge dream: a dream of going into the vast unknown, of leaving Earth and starting an amazing journey through the universe. For a little robot like him, that dream was impossible to reach, but it burned inside him like the biggest star at night. At night, when the sun was going down and the first stars were coming out, Robbie would sneak out of the workshop. It was his favorite thing to do. He would find a quiet spot in the yard right under the big night sky and look up with his electronic eyes. There, among the crickets' songs and the soft rustling of leaves, he would lose himself in his thoughts of huge galaxies, faraway planets, and the wonders of the universe. Robbie wasn't just a robot; he was a dreamer full of stardust who wanted to experience the endless journey that lay beyond Earth's atmosphere. Robbie really got into space studies to satisfy his fantasy of going to space. He read a lot of astronomy books and watched fascinating programs about the universe on the TV that Professor Amelia had set up in the workshop. He also read everything he could get his hands on about rockets, stars, and planets. He said he knew a lot about navigating the stars, the physics of space travel, and human stories from beyond Earth's atmosphere. Robbie was sure he would be ready for the day his dream came true. Then one terrible night, something strange happened. Like always, Robbie was lying under the stars and looking up at the night sky when he saw a glowing line of light. It was a shooting star, a space traveler on its own. Robbie couldn't help but close his eyes, clench his metal hands together, and make a deep wish. "I wish I could go to space and have amazing adventures among the stars," he said softly into the night. To his surprise, the shooting star seemed to answer by flashing a little brighter as it flew across the sky. There was an unusually strong tingling in Robbie's circuits, and a flood of options hit him. It seemed like the universe had heard him. Robbie knew something was different when he woke up the next morning. He had a different feeling, and when he looked down at his metal body, he saw how much it had changed. He had changed into a rocket robot from a small robot. His arms and legs turned into smooth, silver rockets, and a small space helmet sat on top of his head. Robbie was so happy that he couldn't believe what he was seeing. At the time, it was the only thing that could be called a cosmic wonder. Professor Amelia was shocked and encouraged when he ran into the workshop to tell her about his amazing change. She had always known that Robbie wasn't like other robots, and this change showed how strong and determined he was.
