Sidra Sidra is very organised and likes planning. She is curious to learn new things, and is full of good ideas. To find out about life on Earth, she uses her favourite guidebook, Lovely Planet. Astra Astra is cool, sporty, and smart. She likes action, adventures, and all kinds of space sports. But what does she know about Earth sports? Rupert Rupert is kind and caring. He likes to explore new things, but prefers city life to wildlife. Rupert is a food lover. He trusts everyone, and sometimes that can lead him to dangerous situations. Didi Didi is quite adventurous. She enjoys warm weather, and loves to sunbathe. She likes to be on her own, and often tries to find peace and quiet. But can life get a little too lonely? Icy Icy is fun and playful, but a bit naive. He doesn’t like warm places. He is spontaneous and curious, and he is always positive.
