Episode overview
The cultural festival begins, though initially no one is coming to see the planetarium. After Haruko from the city planetarium arrives, she helps to bring in the people and the planetarium is well received by viewers for the rest of the day. Mihoshi thanks Saku for everything he has done for the club and is thankful that she has not caused him any trouble while he was helping the literature club. After the festival, the club members are distraught at the thought of dismantling the planetarium, but eventually take it down. The astronomy club was not able to win any prizes for the festival and thus still do not have enough money to even buy a telescope. Sayo takes the club to her family's Buddhist temple and perform a small moon festival. The astronomy club receives a video letter from the president of the astronomy club of Nogishiro High School in the same prefecture as Sōei High School inviting the club to the Autumn Stargazing Conference of the Prefectural High School Astronomy Network.
