Summary

For centuries philosophers debated on the origins of stars. Now, science gives us a theory involving billions of years and flaming gases. But Scientist Mordecai knows the truth. This animated short is about a character who lives in Antarctica and creates stars out of snowballs. When a gap in the starry sky is detected, he attempts to fill the void by shooting a new snowball into the sky. Unfortunately, the plan proves to be an unsucceeded attempt.
