The movie begins with a narration by Jimmy who tells his story of why he wants to go into space and be an astronaut. In the movie Jimmy Hawkins (Thomas Horn) is a young boy who dreams up becoming an astronaut, just like his father, Andy (Dermot Mulroney). His dream comes true when he wins a scholarship to Space Camp led by Commander Philips (Danny Glover) given by Col. Roy Manley (Josh Lucas). Col. Manley travels around the world recruiting young cadets. However, Jimmy's mother, Sally (Mira Sorvino), refuses because of an incident at NASA, when Andy was fired over a big fight. So Jimmy fakes a voice recorder to make it sound like his father has let him go to space camp, then lies to his mother that he is going on a fishing trip with Andy.

During Jimmy's stay at the camp, he speaks with Andy about NASA and Andy reveals that Manley had him fired. Despite this, Andy gives Jimmy about advice listening to others and learning humility. One night, while Jimmy is on a date with Lacey and camping out, Lacey says she knows about his lie.

Meanwhile, in outer space, a Russian space shuttle is struck by debris and begins to lose pressure. The crew head to the escape pod.

At Jimmy's house, Sally calls, but he does not answer and she then calls Andy, During the call, they discover that Jimmy lied to them, believing Jimmy had run away and Sally feels bad for being hard on him.
