Twelve-year-old Maya Rivera never intended to discover a planet.
She only wanted to help analyze astronomy data for a citizen-science project.
Then a strange signal appears.
A teacher thinks it might be important.
A principal accidentally tells the entire school that Maya discovered a brand-new world.
Within days, Redwood Ridge Middle explodes with Planet Fever.
There are planet cookies.
Planet shirts.
Planet memes.
There is even an entire school celebration called Planet Day.
The problem?
Nobody knows whether the planet is real.
As rumors spread across Oakshore City, Maya and her friends race to uncover the truth behind the mysterious signal before Planet Day turns into the most embarrassing scientific disaster in school history.
Packed with astronomy, mystery, friendship, laugh-out-loud mishaps, and real science woven into every chapter, I Accidentally Discovered a Planet is a STEM adventure perfect for curious readers who love space, discovery, and unforgettable middle-school chaos.
