The movie begins with Pinocchio, Geppetto and their friends building a spaceship from scratch. With their ship finally built, they embark on a journey to explore the outer reaches of space. As they journey deeper into the cosmos, the crew encounters life on other planets, such as the friendly and hospitable planet of Zuzu where they refuel their spacecraft.

However, it is not long before the adventure takes a darker turn. While exploring the galaxy's outer reaches, the crew come across a mysterious, shadowy figure known as Astro, whose schemes puts them all in peril.
