Newton Star (real name: simply Newton) is one of the supporting characters of the PJ Masks series. He is a scientist and a nighttime hero known for helping the PJ Masks, eventually forming with them (along with An Yu and Ice Cub) a new team known as the Power Heroes by the end of the Season 6 episode "Heroes Everywhere." He first appeared in the Season 4 episode "Asteroid Accident."
Newton is an ordinary, book-obsessed kid by day from a different city to the PJ’s, but by night he transforms into protector of space – Newton Star! This is why he hasn’t met the PJ Masks before – and why he can’t be with them all the time. He has no wings but flies with the help of asteroids, gliding through space with incredible skill. He can breathe in space too – without any special gear!
Personality
Newton Star is a friendly yet shy kid. Originally, he preferred to be alone, though over the course of the series, he gradually warms up to the PJ Masks and begins to like hanging out with them. He is very intelligent as he studies asteroids and knows how to harness their magical powers and use them to fight against villains such as Romeo, Night Ninja, the Ninjalinos and Luna Girl.
Motive & Abilities
Motive
Newton Star's motive is to guard the asteroids in outer space and stop them from being stolen by villains who want to use them for their future schemes. He's really fascinated by asteroids and likes to perform experiments with them.
Abilities
Newton draws his powers from his asteroids, which are connected to the emblem on his chest. So far, his abilites include:
- Star Shields: He can use his connection to the asteroids' powers to create red energy shields around his hands to deflect incoming attacks. As seen in "Catboy Does it All", he can also use these shields while piloting his Mecha Suit, forming the shields around the suit's hands instead.
- Flight: He has the ability to fly on earth and in space. He can also breathe in space without any oxygen or space suit.
- Asteroid Surfing: He can surf on asteroids like a surfboard and steer them in any direction he wants.
- Star Power: Newton Star can create white orbs of energy around his hands, and use them to fire energy beams or manipulate asteroids. He can also engulf himself in a gold aura, and fire beams from his stone to trap objects and opponents.
- Communicator: He is able to use his emblem on his super suit to communicate with other people via the Listening Stone.
- Telepathy: He can connect with the asteroids without using the usual sensory channels of communication.
As seen in "Luna Kazoomer," Newton will lose his powers if he gives up his asteroids.
Star Shields, normal use. Star Shields, used with the Mecha Suit.

As Newton Star
Newton Star wears a yellow superhero jumpsuit with red and black thunderbolt details. On his chest, he carries a circular stone with a white center and five colored stones around it in a star-pattern, which, as revealed in "Newton and the Ninjas," links to the Listening Stone he gave to the PJ Masks. He also has a star haircut design on both sides of his head.
