After his father's tragic death, aspiring astronaut Charles Farmer (Billy Bob Thornton) is forced to retire from NASA years earlier so that he could save his family ranch and support his wife Audie (Virginia Madsen) and their three kids. Yet, he can't give up his lifelong dream of traveling into space and thus decides to build and launch his own rocket into orbit.
