==Plot==
{{More plot|date=October 2015}}
The year is 2054 and Zenon Kar is now 18. She is competing to win the Galactic Teen Supreme contest, which ends with a celebration on the [[Moon]]. The Moonstock festival. Zenon wants to beat the handsome Bronley Hale. Sage Borealis, the Moon preservation activist is there. Sage is fighting to keep the Moon from being colonized. Sage asks Zenon to help.

Commander Edward Plank and Aunt Judy Kling have a foster daughter named Dasha, who is starstruck with Zenon and is often getting into trouble. The moon guardian [[Selene]] appears and threatens to destroy the Earth. Zenon and the other racers try to save everyone from Selene.

Zenon, Sage, Dasha along with their friends Margie, Cassie, and Bronley team up to save the day. They evacuate everyone, even passengers in the Proto Zoa's tour bus. When they try to remove the Moon Dome, with each taking a hover pod, the dome is too heavy to be lifted.

Commander Plank and Aunt Judy have been looking for Dasha. When they find her, they decide to help the group lift the dome. The dome is set off to drift into space. Even so, Selene destroys the rest of the base. Selene waves goodbye as the friends return to Earth. The wild weather caused by Selene has stopped.

In the end, Sage and Zenon become close. Protozoa's band Microbe and a new band, Cosmic Blush, hold a concert together. Numbar invites Zenon to be a contestant in a new contest. Meanwhile, a new colony is settled on the planet [[Mars]].
