About A Smile as Big as the Moon 💬

• The following dramatization is based on actual events and people.

John Corbett plays Mike Kersjes, a special education teacher who helps his students achieve their impossible dream: to attend Space Camp at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama. Their inspiring journey is based on a true story.

• Grand Rapids, Michigan - Fall, 1988

Space Camp is a competitive educational program. Although it was designed for gifted science students, Mike decides participating in the summer program would do wonders for the self-esteem of his young, special ed students - especially one who wants to be an astronaut. Kersjes is aided in his mission by another teacher, Robynn McKinney (Jessy Schram).

• Only he believed they could.

He faces incredible obstacles to make his impossible dream become a reality. But it was after they were finally given the green light that the real challenge began - how to get kids with Down syndrome, Tourette's, learning disabilities and emotional problems to coalesce into a team. After nine months of rigorous training and preparation, the class molded itself into a working team where they turned in a performance so surprising that it will leave you amazed.
