"I had the most incredible dream!", Sally said to Justin. "I saw myself dressed in a special spacesuit and I was on the launch pad at Kennedy Space Center. It was so exciting! I was going to space!""We only packed a few things we would need on our trip because there wasn't much room in the orbiter. We had regular food but we would have to heat up in hot water to eat it. It was wrapped so that it wouldn't float away when we were trying to eat it."
"We were only going to be gone for a few days, but we would travel thousands of miles in that time."
"When we took off, it was not really loud but it was very shaky. All of a sudden we were flying toward the sky so fast we couldn't believe it. In minutes we were going thousands of miles an hour, and then we were in orbit, circling the earth every 90 minutes. It was so beautiful to look into the darkness of space or the blue/green colors of the earth through the white clouds. I was having a wonderful time! I wanted to stay in space for a long time but there would be no air for me to breathe and no way for me to get more food. So I was going to have to come back down to earth. Then I woke up."
"I wish I could be the first person to go to Mars or to live on the moon!"
