Once upon a time in a far-off space, there was a little planet called Zorbon. Zorbon was special because it had strange powers, like the power of gravity that kept everything on its surface, heat that kept it warm, and impulse that gave it energy.
But one day, something strange happened. The forces of inertia started to take over, and everything on Zorbon began to slow down. The plants stopped growing, the animals stopped moving and even the stars in the sky seemed to be losing their luminosity.
The people of Zorbon were very worried and so they sent out a spaceship to find help. The spaceship traveled far and wide and eventually came across a wise old scientist who lived on a planet made of isotopes.
The scientist listened to the problem and said, "I know what's wrong with Zorbon! It needs more magnification!" So he gave the people on the spaceship a powerful laser and sent them back to Zorbon.
When they arrived, they aimed the laser at the center of the planet and turned it on. The laser's beam was so strong that it magnified the powers of gravity, heat, and impulse and brought back the life to Zorbon.
And so, the people of Zorbon lived happily ever after, with their planet full of energy and life once again.

The end.

Reflections

1. How did the people of Zorbon feel when their planet started slowing down?
2. Who did they go to for help?
3. What was the solution to saving Zorbon?
4. What happened after the laser was used on Zorbon?
5. How does gravity, heat, and impulse affect life on a planet?
