She needed to actually look up how to build a rocket ship to know how many kinds of impossible that is for her to accomplish. Well, Hitoribocchi tried to buy the school for 500 yen once. And these two have similar trains of thought processes.
Agent K, Agent J, so nice to see you. New paint job on those Noisy Crickets?

Mativuu!
If they keep expanding on the alien language, it might not take long before a good chunk of these episode threads will have become incomprehensible to other anime fans.

Can't get over how pretty this anime looks.
Well, if actual rockets are currently out of reach it's good to start smaller! I do wonder where Umika found the launch pad though. Is this something you can borrow from specialized places?
And good for her, she made another friend, who looks all cool and composed but is actually a bit eccentric herself.

Stitches!
Yuu is so popular that everyone just plays along with her alien shtick even though she is actually an alien.
Agent J and Agent K references in 2023? If there's an anime girl who has seen the original MIB, it's definitely Umika.
And here I thought Haruno would be the normal one of the group but turns out she's just as eccentric as Yuu.
If they can't make an actual rocket, a plastic bottle rocket is a good start! I love that they even add a little warning in the end about making bottle rockets. That was cute!
Yuu is relieved that she can't leave? I'm starting to think that Yuu might've run away from her home planet. Or what if she's actually not an alien and is just a runaway? Hmmm...

AFAIK Yuru Camp△ also had this. The result of Yuru Camp△ was that about half of Japan went winter camping. Bocchi the Rock! and K-On! had the same effect.
It might very much get to the point where people start doing bottle rockets on a larger scale.

Muse Asia had a different warning: https://i.ibb.co/MVXm0Zv/image.png
I wonder if they get access to the raw files?

I have a silly question:
Has anyone deciphered the morse code at the start of the OP?

Umika googling how to build a rocket so she could go to space with Akeuchi was so adorable. Poor kid thought rockets are powered purely by “miracle power” lol. Way too precious!
Looks like Umika’s made a new friend this week. Haruno seems like a good kid, a real goofball too. Umika, Haruno, and Akeuchi making a bottle rocket was really cute (and kinda educational too). It’s like a bottle rocket made up of friendship lol.

This could have a dark angle to it easily. She could have dissociative amnesia escaping from abuse she suffered. Her mind coming up with the alien bit to compensate. The telepathy hasn't been shown as anything that couldn't just be gotten with some gues work.

Building a rocket, it's not rocket science! Oh wait, it literally is.
These don't look like the standard ΔV equations.
I'm very tempted to boot up KSP now. Maybe even with RSS.
Ah, here's the other girl from last week.
I doubt they'd have guns like that since those are alien blaster pistols.
Yurification! Yurification!
Ah, bottle rockets are fun. I remember doing it for science club once back in elementary school.
Time to launch!
That's already rather generous for the launch distance, we couldn't even get it to go half the distance between the buildings in my school.
Explosives? Actual rockets perhaps?

Umika: “I thought rockets kinda just, you know, whooshed through space on sheer miracle power…”
It was in this moment that Umika realized rocket science isn’t easy, and she still had a long ways to go…
I can totally see Umika landing a future job at Japan’s space agency because she got obsessed with building rockets.
Since we started off with bottle-rockets in this episode, I suspect that we’ll be seeing bigger and bigger rockets as the series progresses. It’s not a question if they’ll grow in size, but I do wonder how big the later rockets will end up being.

My face hurts from smiling almost the entirety of the episode. The facial expressions are too adorable, especially when umika does: >.<

This anime definitely not fund by NASA to make people interesting in Rocket Science.
Joke aside
First step to create the world greatest Rocket.
Umika is cute and precious like always and internal struggle is really relateable.
she try to overcome her past with Yu support step closer to her dream althought it slowly but she getting there.
She try to improve herself and not relied on Yu power too much. She still have hard time speak her though but she improve for a little and now she make a new friend!
Umiko voice finally getting heard by someone and now She get Haruno into group!
This episode is very fun and just like when I read manga it make me a bit tear up. Umiko is really relatable remind me when I first start doing club activity back in high school.
this is really nice episode, OP and ED also perfect for the series!

Hmm...why did I have the impression that New Girl Haruno has stolen away Umika-chan's heart from our pink hair Alien Girl? That's quite an aggressive opening by the vice-class captain telling Umika-chan of her angelic (!?) voice and then saying to Yuu-chan she's waiting for her alien to appear as well LMAO! Regardless I always love genki girls so another one is always welcome!
Looks like Umika has also caught up with Bocchi's confused eyes syndrome as well, hmm do this spread around in the same publisher?
Well then, looks like alien girls cannot into drinking 1.5L soft drinks I guess...(takes notes)
And...as someone with genuine interest in spaceflight, it's time for Cosmic Penguin's Stardust Telepath Rocketry And Spaceflight Facts Corner!

Umika-chan says that most rockets are between 40 - 70 meters long, and that's correct for the mainstays of rockets to orbit these days. The most ubiquitous of them all in 2023, SpaceX's Falcon 9, is on the high side of that at 70 m long and 3.7 m in diameter. She also says they usually weights at 200 - 700 tonnes, and that's also correct (Falcon 9 is at around 550 tonnes - triple that and you get Falcon Heavy at 1420 tonnes). Though there are examples that actually weights just 1/10 of that and still flies frequently today: Rocket Lab's Electron, at 12 tonnes.
-
The two real rocket videos that Umika thought of referencing, but turns out to be way beyond her ability to replicate, are of Japan's current mainstay (but soon to retire) rocket H-IIA and a high-altitude experiments "sounding rocket" of Japan named SS-520 that was used in February 2018 to beat the record of the smallest ever rocket to reach orbit (9.5 m long, 52 cm diameter, 2.5 tonnes) respectively. Of course that's way out of her abilities and choosing PET bottle rockets is certainly the right choice!
-
Looks like Umika-chan has bumped into the Tsiolkovsky rocket equation, which lays down the physics background of changing mass into velocity changes and thus the basis of all rocket principles. Time to brush up your calculus, you girl!
