During the summer of 1983, aspiring astronaut Annie Cardona witnesses the historic space shuttle launch that carried Sally Ride, American's first female astronaut, into space. Now this determined eight year old will go to any length to make her space-faring dream come true, and even attempt to conquer her greatest foe: mathematics. Annie must overcome her math hurdles and achieve great success if she is to become an astronaut, according to her teachers and parents, but when the tragedy of Challenger looms over her, she will find it difficult to focus and overcome the painful memory to succeed.
