- As the comet nears
the sun it begins to warm.

Its icy body gets bright
enough to see from Earth

as heat from the
sun causes the ice

on the comet's surface
to evaporate into gases.

- It was our
first field trip of the year.

- Whoosh!

- As usual,
it was Steve Bennett

who got things rolling.

Along with Tourette's,
Steve had ADHD.

I'll stress the H
for hyperactive.

- Will you make him stop it?

- Stephanie
Reinks was never one

to let anything slide.

She was ADD and bipolar.

- Shut up and sit
down, Sasquatch.

- Scott
Goudy, dyslexic

with anger management problems.

He hated being in special ed.

- Shut up, Scott!

- That boy
right there with red hair

is Matt Snyder, autistic
but a math and science whiz.

Lewis Dayhuff, lived with
his 13th foster family.

Dyslexic, Lewis had a temper
that made Scott seem tame.

- Hey, [muffled], knock it off.

Okay, that's it,
everybody out right now.

- Ms. McKinney, tell
him that's not fair.

- Robynn
McKinney, my new co-teacher.

Far more capable than
I had yet to admit.

- You heard Mr. Kersjes.

He's been giving
warnings all day.

Now form a line please.

- We still have 20 minutes.

- That's
me, Mike Kersjes.

Special ed teacher and
defensive football coach.

I started teaching kids with
learning disabilities in 1978

so by this point I'd
learned a few things.

One was not to treat
them as special.

You misbehave, you gotta pay
the price like any other kid.

- After
eons of orbiting,

the comet reaches the
end of its long journey.

- I'd always
loved teaching special ed

but after 10 years

I was feeling a lot
like that comet.

- That show's too long.

30 minutes, those kids combust.

- Speaking of combusting.

- I know I overreacted.

- Yeah, kinda.

- I just don't, I don't think
I have the patience anymore.

- Ben did something
bad, Mr. Kersjes.

- Lisa Casey.

She ran the alphabet of
disabilities, ADHD, OCD.

She was also the
class tattletale.

- What did Ben do?

- He stole this from
the planetarium.

- That's a free brochure, Lisa.

Anybody can take one.

- Yeah, one.

- What do you got there, Ben?

- This is so cool,
Mr. K, space camp.

- Ben
Schmidt, Down syndrome,

learning and speech impaired

but the most affectionate
young man I'd ever met.

- Rocket bomb, whoosh!

- You take one, Ben,
not the whole stack.

Look at this.

- Ben, look what I got.

- There
was also Jamal Davis.

Educably slow and
slow to get agitated.

- You have to wear
one of these things?

- It's a space suit.

- Get to go on a rocket,
that'd be so cool.

-
Finally, Adam Plowright.

Autistic and OCD.

Adam was our gentle giant with
a heart to match his size.

- Just get off the bus, Jabba.

- Hey, Scott, come on.

Let's go Adam, you can do it.

That's it, buddy.

Come here.

- It wasn't my fault.

- What's wrong with you?

Why are you picking on him?

I gotta talk to your mom again?

- Why don't you talk
to Principle Keller

and tell him I don't
belong inside this class?

- Well your test scores from
the last five years say you do.

- Test scores are bull
and everybody knows that.

- Why don't you
read me a paragraph,

any paragraph on how to
enroll in space camp, okay?

- Why would I wanna
go there, you know?

I don't belong with
these losers, okay?

- Hit it, hit it!

What's wrong with you guys?

Cheerleaders hit
harder than you do!

- Okay coach.

Show us how it's done.

- Alright, wise guy.

- This ought to be good.

What's up with coach?

- Line up.

- Hi dad.

- Night dad.

- Hey, goodnight, tiger.

I love you boys.

- I love you dad.

- Sleep tight.

- Love you.

- Okay, love you.

Hey.

Look at this.

Matt's writing in
some kind of code

and Scott's is
basically illegible.

I'll be here all
night deciphering.

- Why isn't Robynn doing this?

With you're coaching
and everything

you're stretched pretty thin.

- Oh, Robynn doesn't
know my kids yet.

- Your kids?

You're gonna have to
let go of something

or you won't be able
to hang on to anything.

I love you.

- I love you too.

- Ben.

Let's go, lights out.

- One more minute.

- What's that?

- Space camp.

- Really?

- That's where they
make the rockets

and I really, really wanna go.

- Ben, I don't know about that.

Tell you what, make sure
you put your swimming trunks

in your backpack.

We'll go straight from
school tomorrow, okay?

- Okay.

- Come on, give me a hug.

- Dad, I want that back.

- Night, kiddo.

- Goodnight dad, I love you.

- Love you
too, lights out.

- What's up, Scott?

- I think that we're showing
some really good effort.

With a little more focus I
think we could really be--

- Still stupid.

- Matt, you aced it as usual.

- Course I did, Algebra's easy.

- Maybe
you could help some

of your classmates
with their math.

- No, they're incapable.

- Lewis,
you wanna tell my

why you didn't do
the assignment?

- I was too tired.

- You had time for this.

Get more sleep,
do your homework.

- See you a minute, Mike?

Good morning, class.

- Say hello to Mr. Keller.

- Good
morning, Mr. Keller.

- Always my favorite class.

I got a call from the
planetarium this morning.

I wanna talk to you during lunch

about taking those kids
on any more field trips.

- Alright.

- Come on!

- No fighting in school,
no fighting in school.

- Get back to your seat.

- Why should I?

- Because I said.

Because I'm asking you to.

Sit down.

- Welcome to the club, Lewis.

- Wanna tell me
what that was about?

- It wasn't him, Ms. McKinney.

They were calling him names.

- Dirt bag, loser.

- Why do you still let that
stuff get to you, Lewis?

They're the losers.

- You gonna be okay?

- Oh, just fine, Ms. McKinney.

- Just stopped a Lewis
Dayhuff brawl for a change.

Speaking of brawls,
how'd it go with Tom?

- I didn't go.

- Why?

- 'Cause I can't
stand the thought

of someone taking away one
more opportunity for my kids.

- What's that you're reading?

- Space camp.

Wouldn't it be cool to go there

and take a class there?

- Cool it would be.

- You think we could go there?

- This class?

- Yeah.

- You know what kind of
kids go to space camp?

Kids headed for MIT, Cal Tech.

- I know but maybe there's a
program for kids like ours.

- You're crazy if you
could see our kids

doing something like that.

- Well I think they could.

There's an 800 number here.

Wouldn't even cost
a dime to call.

We'll just see if
they have any programs

for kids with disabilities.

- And that's it?

- That's it.

- And if they say
no you'll drop it.

- Absolutely.

- No, I'm afraid
we don't have anything

of that nature.

Space camp is really
a program for gifted

and talented children.

- I understand,
I was just hoping

that there might be
some opportunities

for kids who are a
little less fortunate

but no less enthusiastic.

- I don't know
of anything like that.

- Is there someone
there who might?

- I could transfer
you to Dr. Barnhart,

director of our camp.

- That'd be great, thanks.

Moving up the chain of command.

- But you said that
you weren't gonna--

What?

- They're playing Guns N Roses.

- Deborah
Barnhart speaking.

- Hi Dr. Barnhart,
this is Mike Kersjes.

I'm a special ed teacher at
Forest Hills Northern High.

Our kids came across the
brochure for space camp

and I was wondering if
you had any programs there

that they might participate in.

- What kind
of students did you say?

- Special ed, kids
with special needs

ranging from dyslexia, ADD,
to OCD down to Downs syndrome.

- No, unfortunately
we have nothing like that.

- Nothing?

Doctor, our kids
might be challenged

but they have a lot of
heart and imagination

and they'd benefit a lot
from coming to space camp.

- Well
thank you, I wish we

were equipped to handle
students like yours

but we're not.

I tell you what, Mr. Kerchief--

- Actually it's Kersjes.

Like surges but with a K.

- Mr.
Kersjes, why don't you

put together a formal
presentation and send it along?

- Lunch is almost over, Mike.

We still haven't had our chat.

- Good luck.

- Sorry about that.

Important phone call,
school business.

- What about?

- Space camp, I'm
looking in to it.

- Excuse me, what
would you do there?

- The same thing as
the other kids do,

learn about space.

- I asked you in hear
because of a call I got

from the planetarium about
the havoc they created their

and you're talking about
going to space camp?

- Yeah.

- Mike, these kids
have serious behavioral

and learning issues.

Some have IQ's below 85.

Some are reading at a
third grade level, come on.

- Well they've asked
me to send a proposal

so I think I'd like to do that.

- Fine, Mike, you do that.

- Monday we spent the afternoon,

well part of the afternoon
at the planetarium.

What intrigued you most
about what you saw there?

Jamal?

- Oh, I was intrigued
on how Lewis

could actually sleep
through the big bang.

- Bang!

- Alright, that's enough.

- Yeah, it took a screaming
Sasquatch to wake him up.

- Coach, will you make him stop?

- Sit down, Stephanie.

- Sit down, big girl.

- Hey, everybody, alright?

Come on.

Ben, what did you like the most?

- Reading about space camp.

- Reading about space camp?

I just happen to have a few
brochures about space camp.

Why don't we turn it
to a reading exercise?

- We already got one.

- Can we speak a moment, Mike?

- Yeah, pass those
out for me, Ben?

- Sure.

- Guys, this place
teaches kids about space.

- Aren't you getting a
little ahead of yourself?

- Just gauging their interest.

- Gauging their interest?

There's no program for them.

- No program yet.

Proposal for Dr. Barnhart.

It's a start but it
needs your magic touch.

- You stayed up all
night doing this?

- Hey, I'm sick of
everybody saying these kids

can't do anything, they can.

I wanna shoot for the moon.

Listen to 'em.

Hey, together, we can
make this thing happen.

Space camp's not like that.

You don't really go into space

but what you do do is learn
how to become an astronaut,

conduct a shuttle mission.

There's structure to it,
it's a lot of hard work.

- You mean we have to study?

- How long will
it take to study?

- It's gonna take a long time

but I'll tell you what, the kids

who go to space camp,
they have a lot of fun.

I think it's a
great opportunity.

I think it'd be a great
opportunity for us.

Lisa?

- Isn't space camp
for smart kids?

- Good one, Lisa.

- Who's this?

- Albert Einstein.

- Do you know why Albert
Einstein's on our wall?

Because some people say he
was learning disabled as a kid

and he went on to become one

of the most important
mathematicians in history.

Albert Einstein said the
true test of intelligence

isn't knowledge,
it's imagination.

I don't care about your IQ's.

I don't care about your
standardized test scores.

With imagination, you
can overcome any obstacle

that's put in front
of you in life.

Who here has an imagination?

There you go.

- So when do we go?

- Hey, Ms. McKinney.

My mom's gonna ask
Principle Keller

if I can test out of special ed.

- Oh, good luck
with that, Scott.

I know how much
that means to you.

- So Ms. McKinney, when do
we train for space camp.

- Will you stop
asking about that?

It's all you ever do.

Big Dan's Burger Shed?

Sign me up.

I'll do it your way.

- Good choice, dude.

You can get started
on your future

as a burger flipper, right, huh?

- I wanna flip burgers!

- If they liked it I guess they

would have called by now, right?

- I don't know, we put a lot
of effort into that proposal.

Least they could do is read it.

- Coach, they won't even let us

into regular ed
science classes here.

How can we go to space camp?

- Yeah, they're not
gonna let us in.

- Yeah, 'cause we're special.

- This
is Dr. Barnhart.

- Hi, doctor, it's Mike Kersjes

from Forest Hills Northern High.

- Oh, yes, the
special ed instructor.

- Right.

I was wondering
about our proposal.

- I'm sorry,
it's been very busy here.

I'm sure you understand.

- Sure, of course.

- I haven't had
a chance to look at it yet

but when I do, I'll call you.

- Well?

- They're just waiting for
us to give up and go away.

- So pretty much what I said?

- Yeah, that's what you said.

Pressure!

Come on, guys!

Put the pressure on!

What are you waiting for?

You wait, they control the play.

Put the pressure on
you, control the play!

Hey guys, keep
running the drill.

Alright, keep working on it.

Pressure!

- Dude, where's he going?

Hey coach, where you going?

- Check it out.

- Very funny jerks.

They glued my locker shut again.

- Me too.

- Looking good little Bill.

Good morning Robynn.

Matt, Adam, my man.

- Aren't you in a great
mood this morning.

What gives?

- Dr. Barnhart does not know me.

- Dr. Barnhart?

- I realized I have to
apply a little pressure.

- You're going to apply
pressure on space camp.

- That's right.

- How are you gonna do that?

- Our congressman, Paul Henry,

same Paul Henry who
happens to be the co-chair

of the house of space
and technology committee.

- And you're going to ask
him to apply pressure?

- I already did last night.

The best defense
is a good offense.

Sun Tzu, Art of War 101.

- You do realize
that is 100% certain

to antagonize Dr. NASA.

Psychology 101.

- And that is the gamble
'cause we're all in.

Poker 101.

- Mike Kersjes,
you have a phone call

in the school office.

- I'm coming with you.

- This is Mike Kersjes.

- Mr. Kersjes,
this is Deborah Barnhart.

I read your proposal.

- You did?

- It's interesting.

Congressman Henry thinks
it would be a good idea

for you to visit us so
we can talk about it

in greater depth.

- Great, great, okay.

I just have to get
permission from the principle

and we're on our way.

- I assumed
you already had that.

- No, I've mostly
kept this to myself

as not to disappoint
too many people.

I'm sure he'll fully support it.

He's a big fan of the
kids and the program.

- I told you no.

- Actually what you said
was fine, you do that.

- Mike, this is ridiculous.

I couldn't even
justify the expense.

The whole program's
gonna cost what?

- 50 grand, we'll raise it.

- Mike, I want you
in the classroom

teaching the
prescribed curriculum,

preparing them as best you can

for life beyond school.

- Oh come on, Tom.

Sending these kids to space camp

will teach them skills
to use beyond school

better than any
prescribed curriculum.

- Well I disagree, I think you'd

be setting them up for failure.

You'd be doing the
opposite of what you want

by shattering their confidence

and their ability to
move forward in life.

- No, Tom, I had my
doubts at first too

but Mike has a
really good idea here

and I think that you might be
making a mistake on this one.

- I'm making a mistake?

This meeting is over.

- Bye everybody.

Hey Ben, who's
picking you up today?

- My dad.

- Okay, I'll walk out with you.

Alright buddy.

How's that job at the
Burger Shed working out?

- It's awesome, I
flip burgers now.

- I'm not so good
at flipping burgers.

Maybe I'll come down there
and you'll show me how.

- Okay.

- Hey coach, you're headed
in the wrong direction.

- I'm gonna be late
so just work out

with Coach Breed til I
get there, okay guys?

- I thought space camp

was just some far
fetched dream of his.

- Dennis, I believe
this could be a reality

if I could just get past
Tom, get down to Huntsville,

present my case
and I thought you

being president of
the school board,

if you get behind this thing
maybe something could get done.

- Are you kidding me?

Space camp would be an amazing
opportunity for these kids.

I'm headed to a
board meeting now.

Why don't you come
make your case?

- Really?

- Where have you been?

I was so worried.

- I'm sorry, I
should have called.

I couldn't get to a phone.

Listen, Tom Keller
refused to sign off

on space camp today
so after school

I see Ben Schmidt's
dad, he's on his way

to a school board meeting.

He takes me along.

I presented my case and they're
discussing it right now.

- You went over Tom's head?

- Yes.

- You're gonna get
yourself fired.

- I'm not gonna get fired.

- How can you be so sure?

Mike, is this about space camp

or are you just out
to prove that no one

can push Mike Kersjes around?

Maybe the reason they
don't have space camp

for special ed students is
because it's too demanding

and what if they can't do
it and they fail terribly

and they embarrass themselves

just 'cause you wouldn't
take no for an answer?

- Hello?

- Mike, pack your bags.

You're going to Huntsville
to state your case.

- Dennis, that's great.

That is good news,
that's great news.

- We did good, Mike.

- Thank you, Dennis.

- Take care.

- Look at that.

That's the Saturn Five
rocket right there.

That's the rocket that
took Neil Armstrong

and Mike Hollands to the moon.

The eagle has landed.

- Actually Mike, I
think the first men

on the moon were
Armstrong and Aldrin.

- Can you believe this?

Look at these kids.

Can you imagine our kids
walking around in those outfits?

We'll blow their minds.

- Mr. Kersjes.

- Dr. Barnhart.

- Ms. McKinney.

- Hi.

- Well I'm glad to
finally meet the man

behind the phone voice.

Welcome to space camp.

Would you like to look around?

- Absolutely.

- Yes.

- I invited you here
because I wanted you

to understand our difficulties

in dealing with
special needs kids.

We have never done this before

and there's all these
safety and medical issues

that come into consideration.

Now these kids are conducting
crystallization growth

and microgravity experiments,
things of that nature.

It takes a steady
and delicate hand.

Let's go to the MAT.

- MAT?

- Multi-access trainer.

It's NASA speak, Robynn.

Everything's in
acronyms or initials.

The kids have to learn
a whole new language.

Now the MAT simulates
a space shuttle

hitting the
atmosphere on reentry.

- Oh, the kids are
gonna love this.

- What is this exactly?

- It's a tetrahedron.

Campers have to assemble it

and simulate low
gravity conditions.

- You mean underwater?

- That's right, working
against a clock,

competing to be the fastest.

Mike, your kids good swimmers?

Now this is the
highlight of the week,

a simulated shuttle mission.

Campers go through every
stage of an actual flight.

Launch, orbit,
satellite release,

space station docking,
reentry, and landing.

- How long does
the mission last?

- Two hours.

- Two hours, wow.

- The kids, they don't use
all these instruments do they?

- Oh yes they do, they
need to know them very well

because if something goes wrong.

Like the Christmas tree,
they know how to recover.

See we designed this so
we can test the campers

and how they respond
to a crisis situation.

Do they panic or do they
calmly assess a problem

and resolve it.

- How do they turn it off?

- That'll be included in
the curriculum materials

we provide.

Now the shuttle mission
is where we find out

who's got the right stuff.

Come on, I'll show
you mission control.

- Our kids are going to do this?

Stephanie?

Something like that can trigger
one of her panic attacks.

What do you think Adam will do?

Or Steve, they couldn't
even handle the planetarium

for 30 minutes.

- What are we supposed to
do, pack up and go home?

- I just wish that I could
be as sure as you are.

- You don't think
I have my doubt?

- No, actually, I don't.

- You were right, I went
about this the wrong way.

I got their hopes up.

We can't let 'em down now.

You really do get the
best and brightest

of everything here, don't you?

The best education, the
best opportunities in life.

- Actually, we have a
robust scholarship program

where kids come from
all parts of the globe,

all walks of life.

- All?

- Fair enough.

Alright, it's 11 o'clock.

I scheduled you a meeting
with Colonel Weschler at five.

He's a yes or no man.

What's your plan?

- Go back to the hotel
and freshen up I guess.

- I have to let you know
what you're up against.

Colonel Weschler has
not been supportive

of your proposal.

Even if you do manage
to engage his interest,

you might wanna think how
you're gonna negotiate

with him because he likes
the give and take of that.

Without his approval,
this is over.

- It doesn't matter what
you're negotiating for.

See what's important is you

understand the
rules of the game.

Now Robynn, you graduated

from Texas Christian
University, right?

- Yeah.

- Alright, well then
you run the show.

- What?

- [mumbling], Mike, so if
she pays a southern belle

everything goes
much more smoothly.

- What about me?

- Mike, you're a
bull in a china shop.

You're not gonna negotiate,
you're gonna argue.

So just sit quietly
and support everything

that Robynn says, don't talk.

- How do you see this
program helping your kids?

Aren't there other
camps designed

for special education students?

- That's very true sir,
but nothing like this

where they can learn
math, science, technology

the way that you teach it here.

The way that you integrate
using one's hands

with one's imagination.

Colonel Weschler, our
kids can do amazing things

when given the opportunity
and your program

uniquely gives them
just that opportunity.

- What have you and
Mr. Kersjes learned

during your visit here?

- Exactly what we
want them to learn,

that through imagination
and perseverance

and team work,
anything's possible

and Robynn and I, we
have some good ideas

for modifications that
our kids might need.

- Modifications?

- We're not talking
about space camp

adapting to fit the
needs of our kids.

Some of them do have serious
learning disabilities

and it's important for us
to modify a training regimen

that will address
those circumstances.

It won't mean any
additional work

for you or your staff, sir.

- You have anything
more you'd like to say?

- Well colonel, I've worked
with special needs kids

for too long to romanticize
their accomplishments.

There's no simple
solutions for any of them.

These are basically good kids
who've been dealt a bad hand.

They live their
lives on the margins.

Their classroom's a metaphor
for their existence.

It's out of the way in
a room at the far end

of the basement, it's
like a big cell block

with bad air, bad light, no
windows to the outside world

and outside of the
classroom not much

is asked of them nor
is much expected.

Can they try your patience?

Yes, they can.

And do they sometimes
break your heart,

yes sir, they certainly do

but there are times,
remarkable moments when,

and I've seen this
with my own eyes,

when more is asked
of them and more

is expected of them and
they rise to the occasion

gratefully, gladly,
just to remind you

of the remarkable power
of the human spirit.

- Alright class,
before we get started--

- Steve, put that toy away.

- Mr. Kersjes and I
have something to tell you.

- We do?

- We do.

Oh right, we're
going to space camp.

- I'll never fit
in those uniforms.

- Okay, relax, relax.

- Calm down, sit down,
sit down, calm down.

- Calm down.

From today on,
including Saturdays,

you guys are in training,
mental and physical.

- Saturdays?

- Yeah Jamal, Saturdays,
every Saturday

and you gotta do all
your school work too.

You guys are gonna have to work

harder than you ever
thought possible.

Any problems with that?

- Not me, getting tested out

by the end of semester
so I'm out of here.

- Hope you pass.

- Well I'm gonna hate
to lose you, Scott,

but as long as
you're in this class

you're gonna do what we do.

- Coach has something
else he needs to tell you.

Don't you, coach?

- Well I didn't wanna
worry you guys about this

but you're gonna find
out sooner or later.

I gotta raise a humongous
amount of money.

- Well don't sweat
the money, coach.

We'll hold a car wash.

- Or a bake sale.

- Or how about if
we charge money

for people to view
Sasquatch, huh?

- Shut up, Scott!

- Scott!

- Humongous is not a number.

- Ms. McKinney, Ms. McKinney!

- It's gonna take
a lot of bake sales

to raise 50,000 dollars.

- You let me worry
about the fundraising.

I want them concentrating
on training.

- Yeah.

They wanna help too.

Okay, I'm hearing
some good ideas.

Let's put some on the board.

One at a time.

Car wash.

- Coach, check it
out, we're stars.

We're stars going to the stars.

- Cool huh.

- What are those, Ms. McKinney?

- Curriculum materials
from space camp.

- Can we open 'em?

- In a minute, Steve.

- Okay everybody, listen up.

From now on, the
spotlight is on you guys.

Even though Mr. Keller
signed off on this,

you gotta tow the line.

One incident and
this whole thing

could come crashing
down to the ground

and I mean it, one
fight, one disruption

like we had at the
planetarium or the cafeteria

Mr. Keller could pull the
plug on this whole thing

and you know what?

He'd have every
right to do that.

- That would mean you, Lewis.

- Matt.

But he's right, Lewis,
no more fighting.

Scott, you gotta quit
mocking the other kids.

No, no, no, no, no, no
eye rolling, no attitude

'cause that's exactly
what I'm talking about.

That's enough.

No more raspberries.

No more toys.

No more fooling around.

Any questions?

- Can we open the boxes now?

- We have to learn all this?

- You gotta become
experts at it.

- Don't worry, we'll
help each other.

- Don't ask me to help him.

- Okay, I know this
looks like a lot of work

but we can get through
it, we have a year.

Okay, that's Stephanie,
Ben, Lisa, Steve, home ec.

Scott, shop, Matt, pre-cal.

Come on, let's go.

What's up, Adam?

- I like
doing this stuff.

- Building models and airplanes?

- Uh-huh, I'm pretty
good at it too.

Can I take one home?

- Let's wait til
you get a partner

because I'm trying to work
on team building, kay?

- I'll help someone later.

I want to take one home first.

- I don't know, Adam, this
looks really complicated

I don't even know
if I could do it.

You think you could build it?

- Uh-huh.

- You'll bring it
back when you're done?

- Uh-huh.

- You have the stuff you need
to put it together at home?

- Uh-huh.

- Okay, you can have one.

- What?

- Can I take two?

- One.

You bring that one back
and you can have another.

- Gotcha.

- I love Adam but I don't think

you're gonna see
that model again.

- Okay, let's get
those pies in the oven.

- That looks like the
lamest pie I've ever seen.

- Shut up, Jack.

- Yeah, shut up Jack.

- It looks like Sasquatch puke.

- Shut up Jack, you stupid jerk.

- Hey, you settle
down over there.

- This is what they
use on Sasquatch puke.

It kills the smell.

- You jerk!

- Hey!

Steve Bennett, you
are out of here!

- It's just so complicated.

- There's enough acronyms
here to fill a phone book.

- Mr. K, please come help.

- Hey coach!

- What have you guys done?

- They started it!

- We'll clean this up.

- No, bull, they started it.

- I don't care who
started it, Stephanie.

We'll clean it up.

- But coach!

- Go to my room right now.

If we clean this up, can--

- I won't mention a word.

- Stephanie, come
on, quit crying.

Go to the bathroom, Robynn
will help clean you up

but then you gotta
go back to home ec

and straighten up
with everybody else.

Hey.

- Why am I getting in
trouble for defending myself?

They started it.

- I know sweetheart
but I told you,

I don't care who
starts it, okay?

- Why do people
have to be so mean?

- Hey, hey, look at me.

It's not always gonna
be like that, okay?

You have to find a way to rise

above other people's ugliness.

You have to be
stronger than they are.

You have to be more mature.

You have to be
better than they are.

- It's not fair and you know it!

- I'm glad you came by, Kersjes.

See how the kids are doing.

- Just don't let 'em bake.

- They told me about that.

They tell me everything.

You know, truth be told
I wish all my employees

worked half as
hard as these kids.

Want a burger?

- No, no, I'm good.

- Hey, fix Mike a burger.

- Coming right up.

- Thanks for looking
out for the guys.

I know they can get
carried away sometimes.

- You're telling me.

Hey, what's this space camp
thing they keep yammering about?

- It's a great opportunity.

I'm still trying
to make it happen.

- Still?

- Well, I gotta fundraise.

- Well why didn't
someone hit me up?

- Come on Dan, you've already
given these kids so much.

- Don't kid yourself.

They're the ones doing
the giving, not me.

- Guess who the skinny guy is?

- Hey, that your first place?

- Yep, that's
where it all began.

Opened up number 17 on
highway one last month.

- 17.

- Yep.

- Wow, congratulations.

- Thank you.

- One burger coming up.

- Hey man, look
at that, wow guys.

Alright, well, here goes.

- Here's my contribution.

Go on, look at it,
it's a thousand.

- Alright!

- Hey, don't go die
on me now, Kersjes.

- Please be doubles, yes!

- Well, I guess you
proved me wrong.

I'm so proud of you.

- Hey, listen to this.

Space camp is a rigorous

and competitive
educational experience.

Awards are presented
for best team patch,

best space station and
most prestigious award,

best mission.

- Does that get your
competitive juices flowing?

- You know it.

- I wanna go to space camp.

- Well nobody's gonna
go to space camp, buddy,

unless I can raise
some more money.

I got three more
rejections today.

- Oh Mike.

- Long way from 1800
dollars to 50,000.

- I'm sorry.

- I don't know, maybe
it's for the best.

I mean I'm trying
to read this thing

and you gotta be a genius.

How am I ever gonna teach it?

- Well you know,
someone said once

that genius is
breaking down something

that's complicated and turning
it into something simple.

You know, it's like that.

You got two dice, you got
a metal shoe and a top hat

and our sons are learning
to become capitalist.

They're buying real estate
and they're getting mortgages.

- Yes, like getting out of jail!

- Yeah, and they're
getting out of jail.

- Free parking.

- That's it.

- What's it?

- Keeping it simple.

A board game!

You're the genius.

- Hey.

- Guys, can I borrow that?

- Sure dad.

But dad, I was winning!

- Hey.

- Hello, Mr. Late.

- Oh, sorry I'm late.

Here's what I wanna do.

Cut the room in half,
all the desks that way,

all these desks that way.

Let's make a big space
right in the middle.

Wait til you guys
see what I got.

Alright, help me
pull this out here.

- What's this?

- Whoa, that's so cool.

- Alright, the object
is to get from the Earth

to the space station.

We're gonna roll the dice.

You might have to use
a mission control card

or a cautions and warning card.

For instance, SRB has
failed to separate.

- Solid rocket booster.

- Solid rocket booster,

look who's been
doing their homework.

You guys get it,
come on, roll it.

- Who made this?

- I did, why?

Oh, you think you can do better?

- Yeah, I know I can.

- Have at it my friend,
knock yourself out.

- Adam, you're late.

- Yes I am.

- What is that?

- It's a surprise.

- Let's see.

- What is it?

- May I?

- Certainly.

- That's amazing.

- Wow.

How'd you learn how to do that?

- I don't know, I just know how.

- You did this all by yourself.

- Mm-hmm.

- In one night.

- Mm-hmm.

- This would take
me a week to do

and you did your homework too?

- You know I did.

- Adam, you have an
extraordinary gift.

I am so proud of you.

- And you said I could
have another one.

- I did, didn't I?

You can.

- Thanks coach.

- Hey, I know that nothing
makes you guys more nervous

than the clock, being
timed and stuff,

but in space camp you
get timed at things

so we're gonna take it
up a notch, understand?

- You can't let the
clock be your enemy.

You must embrace the
clock, love the clock.

It's your friend.

- On your mark, get set, go.

- Nice and steady.

- Alright, let's go, keep
your eye on the goal line.

You can do it.

Keep your eye on the goal.

- Now we gotta practice with
the space cadets, coach?

- Down goes Sasquatch.

- Hey, come on man,
that's your idea of tough,

picking on a girl, huh?

- Thanks.

- You okay?

- Yeah.

- Thought you guys
were a football team.

When did you become
a pack of bullies

which is what you
were out there.

What happened today is
never gonna happen again.

Does everybody got that?

- Yes sir.

- Sorry coach, it
was just an accident.

- It was an accident?

Pushing that girl
wasn't an accident.

Calling 'em Sasquatch,
space cadet,

that wasn't an accident.

- Okay.

Why you gotta spend so
much time with them?

What about the team?

- Yeah,
what's up with that.

- These kids need me more
than you guys right now.

You guys have got
state championships,

you guys have trophies.

What have they got?

Nothing, zilch.

Against all odds they get a
chance to go to space camp,

something they never
dreamed possible.

Well I gotta make
a team out of 'em

and I need a team to
show 'em how it's done.

Right now I'm asking you guys

to be big brothers
to these kids.

If you see 'em in the
hallway, be friendly to 'em.

You see 'em in the
cafeteria, recognize 'em

as fellow human beings.

If you do that, the rest of
the kids will follow suit.

Okay, tetrahedron
assembly is a major part

of competition at space camp.

We've done it in
class, now we need

to do it in low gravity
which means under water.

Look at this, looks
like we got some help

teaching you guys how to swim.

Alright, everybody in the pool.

- Don't be nervous.

All we wanna do is
see who can swim

and who needs some help.

- It's cold.

You sure we have
to do this, coach?

- No, you don't
have to do it Lewis,

long as you don't mind
losing your spot on the team.

- Never mind.

- Hey!

Are you okay?

- Steve clearly never
learned how to swim.

- That's okay.

That's the kind of gung
ho guy every team needs.

Okay, now who here
can tread water?

- Okay, but in the shallow end.

Steve, you stay put.

- Sasquatch can't swim.

- Shut up, Scott, can too.

- Guys, come on.

- Watch out below!

- No, Ben!

Oh my gosh.

- Got a swimmer.

- Hand me those rods
and nodes please.

Okay everybody, this is where
the rubber meets the road.

We need teamwork underwater.

Get up here and grab one
of these and go for it.

- This will be
fun, you can do it.

- One, two, three.

- Wait, we can't all go
down at the same time.

- Just try it.

- Team work.

- You made me drop my node.

- Hey, you
grabbed the rod from me,

you dropped it yourself.

Just go find it.

- You go find it.

- Hey, Jamal, come on.

- Everyone's fighting.

- Let's go, everybody out
of the pool right now.

Hey Scott, hang back
a second would you?

- What did I do?

- I need you to lighten up.

You're too harsh
with these kids.

You got nothing to prove.

You're the best swimmer,
you're the quickest learner.

- Yeah, quickest learner, right.

- You are the quickest
learner and you know what,

everybody knows that
so you don't have

to make 'em feel bad about it.

Scott, you gotta
have more patience.

Hey, I know it's hard.

Nobody said it was gonna
be easy being a leader.

- Who said that I was a leader?

- I'm saying it right now.

Every team needs a
leader to set an example

and I need you to
be that person.

- Coach, I'm not a leader.

Coach.

Staying in the class.

- Small viewfinder,
this lines up

Why don't we use this

T minus five.

- Four, three,
two, one, blastoff.

- Hey, another rejection letter.

That's 18.

Two more and I'm
dead in the water.

- What are you gonna tell them?

- I don't know.

I got their hopes
up so high, I just,

do everything backwards.

- Oh Mike.

- This is what we've been
working toward, guys,

going to the stars.

- Are we really
going there, dad?

- Oh no, buddy, that's
just an expression.

- Do we have the money yet?

- Oh, good question, do
we have the money yet?

Actually no, we don't,
but I'm working on it.

- But--

- But coach, you said--

- I know, I know, listen,

I've got a few
irons in the fire.

I'm looking at some grants.

You guys let me
worry about this.

- So who can tell me the
name of a constellation?

Yeah?

- Ryan?

- Orion, composed of
Betelgeuse, Rigel, Bellatrix,

Mintaka, Alnilam,
Alnitak and Saiph.

- Very good, Matt.

Can you tell the class
the name of any others?

- No, they should
do their own work.

- The moon is sad.

- Or if you turn your
head sideways, Adam,

it's smiling, see?

- It's hard to believe
guys really went up there.

- I saw a show on TV,
said it was all faked.

- It wasn't faked, it was real.

Right, coach?

- I saw it happen, I'm
pretty sure it was real.

- Yeah, but it was on TV.

- You're saying that TV is fake?

You ever seen Monday
Night Football?

- Forget about him, he's
testing out anyways.

- Let Mr. Kersjes talk.

- Well I guess I
was around your age

when I saw Neil Armstrong walk

on that big piece of cold
rock for the first time.

I was a young kid going
nowhere, no plans,

no future, and when I saw that

I realized anything was possible

if you just reached
for the stars.

- Just like we're doing.

- Just like
we're doing, Ben.

- Hey Dan.

Ben and Steve said
you wanted to see me.

Are they making problems?

- They're not the
problem, coach, you are.

- Me?

- Yeah, Steve tells me
you are really awful

at fundraising.

- He did, huh.

- My thousand dollars
couldn't get it done.

- Dan, it was a generous
start but I stalled.

- You didn't tell me
you need 50,000 dollars.

- My lord.

- You gotta shoot for the moon

if you ever expect
to get there, coach.

- We're going to space camp.

We're going to space camp.

- Yes sir.

- Yeah, we did it fellas.

- Oh cool, a rocket ship.

- Look at that, Ben.

- Can't believe this.

- It's like a
space station here.

- Parisian
Air, over here.

-
Tech, over here please.

- [mumbling],
right here.

- Dan's Burger Shed,
right this way.

- That's Big Dan's Burger Shed.

- Big Dan's Burger
Shed, sorry about that.

- Is he on your team
or just tagging along.

- Oh, he's our
team captain, why?

- He's a mongoloid.

- No, he's an American.

Tourette's.

- Y'all are the
first team I ever had

that's named after a hamburger.

I'm Julie, I'm gonna be your
lead counselor so welcome.

Let's go get y'all orientated.

Hi there.

Come on guys.

Come on in here.

So space habitat
is where you boys

are gonna be bunking
during your stay.

- Just like Star Wars.

Now I'm next to Steve
and Jamal, we can rest.

- The eagle has landed.

- Well I'm sorry, guys, but
there's no rest for the weary.

We need to go get you suited up.

- What?

- Come on, it'll
be fun, come on.

Come on everyone.

Let's go get our
astronaut suits.

Okay campers, try to
find a suit that fits you

'cause you're gonna be
wearing it a lot this week.

- I knew there
wouldn't be one for me.

- Oh no, honey, don't you worry.

We'll get one made for you.

- You think so?

- I promise you so.

Get you one made
special just for you.

- I hope so.

- Okay everyone, group
photo is at 1700.

That gives you 30 minutes
to spruce up, alright?

- 30 minutes.

- It fits.

- It's perfect.

- Say space.

- Okay burgers,
let's rock and roll.

Time for astronaut
fun before the judges

put your through
your paces, come on!

- One small step for man.

One giant leap for mankind.

- Just kidding!

- Hello?

- Hey, I wake you?

- Is everything alright?

- Yeah, I
just can't sleep.

- What's wrong?

- Well in five hours, all
hell's gonna break loose

and there's nothing
I can do about it.

- Mike, what
are you talking about?

- It's our first judged event.

They're gonna pick
us up in a bus

and take us to the
pool and the kids

have to build that
tetrahedron under water.

- Oh, that.

- Yeah that and I can't
help thinking we didn't

get enough pool time,
never nailed it down.

It's the one thing that
almost blew us apart.

- Mike, they're gonna
do great, don't worry.

- I'm sorry I woke you.

- I'm glad
you did, I love you.

- I love you too,
go back to sleep.

- We have to get on the
same bus as those guys?

- Well I thought they
always ride the short bus.

- I bet they're thinking
what we're thinking.

- About the day at the Y?

- Yeah.

- Where
are you going, Mike?

- Does that thing work?

- Yes, would you like to use it?

- May I?

- Be my guest.

- What's he doing?

- Tech Court, two
minutes, 49 seconds.

Nice work, Tech Court.

Next up, Big Dan's Burger Shed.

- Come on guys, gather
around, gather around.

Don't worry about those guys.

- Don't worry coach.

I can hold my breath
for a very long time.

- If I never needed your lung
power, Ben, it's right now.

Alright, everybody
get a hand in here.

What gets it done?

- Team work!

- They're really gonna blow it.

- Come on!

Yeah!

You're doing great!

- Come on, come on.

- Come on.

- Big Dan's Burger Shed,
two minutes, 48 seconds.

Best time of the day.

- Way to go!

Come on, let's go.

- Any idiot can swim.

Wait til you have to
use some intellect.

- That would require a brain.

- Check the scoreboard,
see who's on top.

- While Neil Armstrong
and Buzz Aldrin walked

on the moon, one astronaut
had to watch from lunar orbit.

Name this--

- Michael Collins.

- Correct.

Before NASA began launching
humans into space,

we launched a few who were not.

Name one of them.

Extra points if
you can name more.

- launched
four December, 1959.

21 January, 1960.

Ham, chimpanzee,
31 January 1961.

- Well I sure wasn't
expecting launch dates.

Well done, Big
Dan's Burger Shed.

- What is it supposed to be?

- A space hospital, Lisa's idea.

- My friend Terra had leukemia

and she got radiation
sickness from her treatments

and people in space might
get radiation sickness too.

- On Skylab, four astronauts
received radiation exposure

equivalent to 25 CAT scans

or piloting a commercial
airplane for 90 years.

- I thought a space hospital
to help these people

might be something we'd see.

- That's very, very
nice work, team.

After this we have one
more activity to do.

- Wait, wait, can't
we do it tomorrow.

- We're on NASA time, honey.

Tomorrow is right now.

Your assignment is to
design a shoulder patch

which expresses
your team's spirit

and the spirit of NASA.

Oh come on, you can do it.

- Okay.

The sooner we get started,
the sooner we can sleep.

- I'm with you, Stephanie.

- Got it, let's go to bed.

- Shut up, sh, sh!

Give me your ideas one at
a time and I'll draw 'em.

- Draw a rocket with
us riding on it.

- I already did that.

- He means draw
it right, stupid.

- Who you calling stupid, Jamal.

You're stupid.

- Steve,
don't be a jerk.

- Well if I'm a jerk
then you're Sasquatch.

- Let's just draw stars,
we can just draw 14 stars.

- Stars sounds like
we're bragging.

- Draw 14 planets.

- There's only nine
planets in the solar system.

- But there are billions
and billions of stars.

- There's only one star
in our solar system.

There are three stars only
five light years away.

Alpha Centauri A--

- How about we just
draw like five--

- Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
the comet, it's like--

- Looks stupid,
draw 'em like this.

- Yeah, but comets aren't
star shaped, they're round.

- Shut up, shut up!

- Do you want me
to go after him?

- That was quite a display.

Where was the team in that?

- Sorry.

- Sorry, sorry doesn't cut it.

You know what can happen now?

This incident can
get back to people

and they'll say see, these
kids don't belong here.

They'll send us home
and they'll never

let another special ed
class ever come here.

Do we want that
to be our legacy?

- No.

- Lewis is your friend,
he's your teammate.

You guys know you have
to be patient with him.

I want you to think about that

while I go try and get him back.

- Hey, no, no, we'll go get him.

- We don't need you anymore.

- They don't need us anymore.

- Isn't that what
we've worked for?

- Sorry Lewis.

- Sorry
Lewis, it's our fault.

- It's okay just please, guys,

give me your ideas
one at a time.

- Wouldn't it be funny if there
was a burger shed in space?

- Burger shed in space.

- Alright Adam, lead the way.

And that's yours,
Stephanie, we've got yours.

Jamal.

- Robynn and I stayed up
late to sign these positions

for the shuttle mission.

- Super bowl of space camp.

- Scott, flight director.

- Flight director.

No, no, no, not me coach.

- I thought you would
have liked that.

You get to run the show.

- I don't want to
run anybody's show.

- Scott, I need a
leader in that position.

- I'm not a leader, okay?

You keep saying
I am but I'm not.

- You are a leader.

You've shown glimmers of
it here at space camp.

Now it's time to shine.

- Well, this is it.

The highlight of space camp.

Good luck, campers.

I'm gonna be in mission
control watching.

Hey coach, you wanna say
something to your team?

- I do.

Come on, everybody,
huddle up, huddle up.

Let's get in here.

I want you to look
at each other.

Look into the eyes of
the person next to you.

Remember how you felt about
that person eight months ago.

Measure that to how
you feel right now.

That's what teamwork
can do for you

'cause you guys are
a team now and nobody

can ever take that away from you

and not just any team.

You're the first team of
special education students

to ever step foot inside
that space shuttle.

First team from Michigan,
first team in the entire world.

- The universe!

- Exactly and what
happens in there

is gonna have a ripple effect.

You guys get the job done,
other special ed kids

are gonna be lining
up right behind you.

- And if we don't?

- Hey, Adam, I don't
care about that

'cause we spent seven months
training for this day.

No other team is as prepared
or has as much to prove.

Come on, put your hands on mine.

On three, let's show
a little husky pride.

- One, two,
three, husky pride!

- Now y'all got a lot
to do on this mission.

SRB separation, orbit,
satellite launch, EVA.

- Why's she going so fast?

- SRB, solid rocket
booster, EVA,

extra vehicular activity, OMS,
orbital maneuvering system.

- This is your
mission commander.

Tighten up your
seat belts, guys.

We're gonna fire up the rockets.

- Alright, time to
fire it up, flight.

They're gonna be throwing
anomalies at you so be ready.

- Anomaly, system failures.

- Okay, okay, just
leave me alone.

Begin pre-launch procedures.

- Copy that Mr. Control.

Beginning pre-launch procedures.

- Hey, I'm supposed to say that.

- This is mission commander,

beginning pre-launch procedures.

- Okay, copy that.

Begin countdown for liftoff.

- 10, nine.

- They're so quiet, no drama.

- I can't hear.

- Speak up, Matt,
nobody can hear you.

- Three, two, one, liftoff.

- Houston, we have liftoff.

Space, the final frontier.

These are the voyages--

- Cool it, Steve, cool it.

Okay, standby for SRB separation

at T plus two minutes
and five seconds.

- Standing by.

- Supposed to be G forces.

- I guess they
can't do everything.

- Execute SRB separation
in five, four,

three, two, one, execute.

Nice work, mission commander.

Next stop, space.

- You're
doing great, Scott.

- We're in outer space now.

- Look at
all those stars.

- Space city, dude, keep
your eyes out for martians.

- Knock off the chatter.

Stay focused on
the task at hand.

Standby to activate OMS at
T plus 20 and 30 seconds.

- Roger that, flight control.

- Be advised that we can see
everything you do down here.

OMS is orbital
maneuvering system

and we need you to activate
it in eight seconds.

- Roger that, flight control.

Standby to execute and
we have five, four.

- Three, two, one, execute.

OMS.

- So cool, Adam, look.

- Wow.

- It's so pretty.

- This is so amazing.

- Mission control, we
have achieved orbit.

- Yeah.

- Okay, mission
specialist Stephanie,

standby for satellite
launch at T plus one hour,

10 minutes, and 22 seconds.

- Copy that, standing by.

- Stephanie's
supposed to say that.

- Okay, Jamal, relax,
you're the co-pilot.

- Excuse me, Mr. Pilot.

- Stop the
bickering right now.

- Hey, better get in position.

We only get one shot at this.

- I know my job.

Stop trying to boss
everybody around.

- What's happening?

- We got a whatchamacallit.

- I know what this is, it's
a Christmas tree false alarm.

Just click the switch.

- Okay, no sweat.

- I can fix this.

- What?

- Mission specialist,
take your position.

Stephanie, do you read?

- Do something, Steve,
we're gonna crash.

- It's nothing.

- You're not going to crash.

- It's nothing, just forget it.

- Shut up, shut up, shut up.

- Knock it off!

I want complete silence
in that cockpit.

Pilot, why haven't you
fixed that anomaly?

Take your position,
mission specialist.

You can do this, Steph.

You've still got time.

Get back to your position.

Yeah, that's it.

Standby to execute.

Ready.

Launch.

- What happened?

- Nothing happened,
you missed the window.

- Too slow.

- I'm sorry, I
blew it, I blew it!

- No, no, listen
to me Stephanie.

All of you listen.

We made a mistake, so what?

I mean this mission is not over.

We still got a lot
of tasks to perform

and then we gotta go through
reentry and a safe landing.

We have not failed.

We're going to forget
this and move on.

You copy, Stephanie?

- Copy, Scott.

- Alright.

Standby for SSD at T plus
two hours and 10 minutes.

Come on, come on, come on.

Shuttle crew, welcome
back to Huntsville.

Congratulations on a
job well done, yes, yes!

- These kids really picked
themselves up off the floor.

Well done, Burgers.

- You were right,
Mike, congratulations.

- Did it, yes!

- Scott.

You led.

- And finally, in conclusion
of our graduation ceremony,

the part you've all
been waiting for,

is tonight's presentation
of the awards.

- We may win something.

- Not likely.

- Hey, we won just
by being here.

- Best space patch, third prize

goes to Big Dan's Burger Shed.

Come up here.

- Thank you, thank
you very much.

We'd also like to
thank the members--

- I'm sorry, we don't have
time for thank you speeches.

For best space
station, second place

goes to Big Dan's Burger Shed.

In the category of best
mission, third place

goes to Big Dan's Burger Shed.

- Alright.

Yeah!

- Our final award is
one you didn't even know

you were competing for.

All week, our judges
have been setting you,

maybe you noticed.

They were looking for
something not found

in technology or a machine

because that's not really
what space camp is about.

They were looking for something

that we call the right stuff.

For the individual who best
displays the characteristics

of a true astronaut,
who has been invaluable

to the accomplishments
of his or her team,

who has never complained,
who has always

supported his or her teammates

and who has been
respectful of counselors

and fellow competitors.

The right stuff
award is presented to

Scott Gowdy of Big
Dan's Burger Shed.

- Thank you.

- Congratulations Scott,
you wanna say something.

- Thank you.

Thank you.

- What are you doing?

Lewis, come here.

- Whoa.

- What are
you doing, man?

- Scott,
are you crazy?

- Scott's doing something
bad, Mr. Kersjes.

- Scott?

- He's cutting up his award.

- He's lost it sir,
he's gone over.

- You've gone crazy, dude.

- Give me those scissors, Scott.

- It's alright, coach.

This is something I gotta do.

Look, we're a team, right?

This award, it belongs
to all of us, I mean.

You guys, you guys
got the right stuff

same as me.

- You really think I
have the right stuff, me?

- Yeah, for a Sasquatch.

This is yours.

Can't have a team
without a coach.

- I'm honored, Scott.
