Produktbeschreibung
NASA has begun an exciting new project-sending kids to space! Only a handful of bright, young scientific minds have been selected to go on the two-year mission, and Kai is one of them. He and the other four young astronauts will get to learn how to live in a space station, work with the most innovative new technologies, perform their own research, and even visit other planets. Two years is a long time to be away from Earth, and there's a lot that could go wrong, but the Astronaut Kids are ready for the challenge! "Five young astronauts join a two-year scientific research mission in this children's SF novel. Ten-year-old Kai of Hilo, Hawaii, is beyond thrilled that he's going to be a real astronaut, like his hero Ellison Onizuka. He's been chosen for a two-year NASA youth mission that will travel to the dwarf planet Ceres, where they'll also get a good view of Mars. . . . While studying, testing, collecting, and reporting data for individual projects, the young astronauts must work as a team and with adults to address challenges that arise. It's a learning experience in several ways, testing the kids' maturity and intelligence. . . . An enjoyable coming-of-age tale that's also a next-level Space Camp adventure." - Kirkus Reviews
