The story is about a young girl who is fascinated by the night sky. As she learns more about the stars and planets, she receives her own telescope for her birthday. She quickly discovers, however, that lights in the city interfere with her observing. She visits her grandparents farm and sees the sky from a dark-sky perspective. With her parents' support, she meets with their citys engineering department. She is able to convince the citys lighting engineer to try full-cut-off lights in her residential area. Successful, she pursues a hobby of observing, which leads to her RASC.
