One day, somewhere in the vastness of space, some very large aliens were playing a game of baseball.

“Here it comes—home run!!”

CRACK! The ball flew straight… and hit the Moon—dead on!

“Huh? Did we hit something…?”

RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE… The Moon began to spin and spin, and tumbled off into the far reaches of the universe.

Meanwhile, back on Earth—

“Hey, isn’t tonight supposed to be a full moon?” “Seriously? There’s no eclipse… Is this breaking news?!”

The humans were in a total panic.

The ones in real trouble? The aliens playing baseball.

“Oh no… We’re gonna get in trouble for this… But wait—look over there!”

Right nearby was… a giant plate of omelet rice.

“Perfect! It’s round and yellow. They’ll never know the difference!”

And so, they gently placed the giant omelet rice in Earth’s night sky.

“See? Looks just like the Moon! Crisis averted!”

That’s why, tonight’s moon— isn’t a moon at all.

It’s actually… a giant alien’s omelet rice.
