One Small Step

Scott Macleod is a 13 year old kid, living in Texas in the year 1969. His dad, part of the United States Air Force, is training him for his pilots license. When his dad is injured in the plane, Scott has to take over and fly the craft down and land it. When he does this successfully, NASA notices, and Scott is persuaded to join the NASA space program, on a top-secret mission to land two chimpanzees on the lunar surface. Going through training, he discovers that after the mission, it will remain top secret. He would not be able to talk about it to his friends. He also thinks something funny is going on--a chimpanzee who was originally the best one they had, and was intended to go to the moon, starts acting crazy. Is there something else that NASA isn't telling him?
