Since then, the two superpowers have been fighting over which country will control the universe. President Kennedy begins a new space program, with a goal of landing a man on the moon before the end of the 1960s. You want to be a part of it. Can you help beat the Russians and help the United States land a man on the moon?

Reviews
"These titles aren't adventures per se but rather an engaging way to reach students hesitant about space science. Some of the "paths" simply end when that part of a mission concludes or the particular engineering problem is solved, while others continue to a final goal. Negative endings are possible, including being fired or getting space motion sickness. Some choices introduce moral dilemmas, while others simply involve choosing among relatively equal possibilities. . . .The first-person perspective is an effective means of getting readers passionate about space. No doubt these will inspire a few future engineers and astronauts."
