Planetes Episode 1 English Dubbed Episode Title:Outside the Atmosphere.Episode Description:Ai Tanabe arrives for her new job with Technora aboard the ISPV 7 space station, and comes to find that she is assigned to the Debris Section, derogatorily deemed the "Half Section". She is introduced to the members, who seem unorganized and awkward upon first impression. She begins training in extra-vehicular activity with Hachirota "Hachimaki" Hoshino as her instructor. Tanabe and Hachimaki's first mission together is to deorbit a memorial plate to prevent it from colliding with a military satellite. Tanabe initially believes that the plate should be spared because it is a message of peace, but is swayed when she realizes the plate is really just propaganda.
