Plot
A glowing orb flies through space, aiming for Earth's ocean, and is knocked off course by a satellite. In a New York City apartment, a boy named Josh Morrison notices the object heading towards him through his telescope and it lands in his fishbowl. He tells his mother, Gina, but she does not believe him. When Gina leaves his room, Josh sees the orb quickly absorb all of the water inside his fishbowl, so he takes it to his school presentation.
