When Mira was a young girl she met a boy named Ao. They stargaze together and Mira learns that she shares her name with an asteroid; she states that one day they will find their own asteroid and name it after Ao. They don't meet again for many years; Mira is at high school and joins the Earth sciences Club... a club formed after the Astronomy Club and Geology Club were combined. Here she meets a girl named Ao... who turns out to be the 'boy' she met before. Reunited they determine to renew their search for an asteroid. Over the course of the series they do various astronomy things as well as taking an interest in the geology side of the club.
There are many anime series about school girls doing various activities in an after school club; some are better than others. I'd say this is one of the good ones. The characters are likable and their activities are genuinely interesting. Of course it helps that I find both astronomy and geology fascinating at a very basic level. The animation is good, as are the character designs. Overall I'd certainly recommend this series... if you want to discover whether they find their asteroid you'll certainly need to watch.
These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.
