-:[A square device with a light on top and a label on its side, is seen resting on a stool to the left. It is activated and the light on top of it is glowing and a voice is emanating from it, maybe even speaking the siren part of the sound that comes between sentences. Cueball, sitting on an office chair at his desk, looks away from his laptop so he is now facing the device while Megan is on the other side of the desk running away from it towards the right edge of the panel.]

-The comic shows [[Megan]] and [[Cueball]] being alerted by a 'Sky Alarm' that a 'cool space thing' is happening. The alarm is triggered when a relatively interesting astronomical event occurs, for example, the {{w|Perseid meteor shower}} and blue {{w|supermoon}} that happened recently. Randall remarks in the caption how he wants this device and wishes it existed. Cueball and Megan (and by extension [[Randall]]) feel that they regularly miss events they'd like to see, so such a device would help prevent this.

 The title text further specifies that he would want it to activate even for more common sky-related spectacles, such as interesting clouds and nice sunsets (which still can be very beautiful). In short, it would help its owner to not miss interesting outdoor sights.
