Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Rupert. He was very curious and loved exploring new things. But Rupert was also very sick and had to stay in the hospital. He couldn't go outside to play like other children his age.

One night, as Rupert lay in bed, he looked out of his window and saw a bright star in the sky. It was the biggest and shiniest star he had ever seen. Rupert wished with all his might to go to that star and explore the universe.

Just then, something magical happened. Rupert's hospital bed started to float in the air! Rupert couldn't believe his eyes. He was going to space! His bed flew past the moon and the stars and into the deep dark space.

As Rupert traveled through space, he saw many colorful planets and met friendly aliens. They showed him their alien pets and taught him how to do somersaults in zero gravity. Rupert laughed and had the time of his life.

But soon, Rupert started to miss his family, his friends, and the familiar sights of Earth. He wanted to go back home. So he asked the aliens for help. They showed him a big spaceship that would take him back to Earth.

Rupert said goodbye to his new alien friends and thanked them for the amazing adventure. He climbed onto the spaceship and closed his eyes, wishing to be back in his hospital room.
