After leaving Gongaga, cross the river located southwest of the village and follow the path into the canyons. Here you'll find the town of Cosmo Canyon, which rests on the side of a plateau. This place is very distinguishable because of the planetarium located at the top. You can't miss it - the Buggy breaks down right in front of it!
Cosmo Canyon, a community dedicated to the study of Planet Life and peace, is Red XIII's hometown. This is also the place Barret once promised to bring Biggs, Jessie, and Wedge after AVALANCHE had stopped Shinra's evil doings.
Note:
When the Buggy breaks down, talk to the man in the middle of town who looks like a struction worker. Tell him you aren't here to study and he'll offer to fix the Buggy for you.
You discover something very big in Cosmo Canyon - Red XIII's real name is Nanaki. Follow Red XIII up the stairs to the left to meet his grandpa, Bugenhagen, who lives in the planetarium at the top of Cosmo Canyon. Along the way, stop and talk to Barret, who shards a bit of AVALANCHE's history with you.
Bugenhagen is very much in tune with the planet and can even sense its despair. You'll get a chace to look at Bugenhagen's contraption, but you must find one other team member to join you. You can choose anyone in your party - with the exception of Red XIII. When you're all set, go back to Bugenhagen's.
Bugenhagen is already in his laboratory. Go inside and he'll teach you about the Lifestream and Shinra's destruction of the planet. When the lesson is over, talk to Bugenhagen one more time and then go to the center of Cosmo Canyon, where the rest of the team is resting around Cosmo Candle.
Make sure you talk to everyone on the team, but talk to Red XIII last. He talks a bit about his mother and father, which prompts Bugenhagen to appear. He asks you to create a party (which must include Cloud and Red XIII) and follow him to the locked door which you saw earlier. Bugenhagen opens a new path on your adventure by unlocking the door, which gives you access to the Cave of the Gi.
