So when Space Drams, a space travel company, held a competition, Sam decided to enter. The p【2】 was a trip to the Space Station itself!

When the phone rang, he answered, "HI." A voice replied. "Hello, can I speak to Sam? This is Jack Mellow of Space Dreams." Jack told Sam he was the winner. Buzz had said that Sam's writing d【4】exactly how he had felt on his first space trip. Sam could not believe it. Jack had already arranged with Sam's school for him to take a few days off. He had to go to t【5】 before he could fly.

Sam learnt how to put on a space suit. Then he was put onto a machine and turned around. This was to help him get used to travelling at very fast speeds. He also learned how to move without gravity(重力)to k【6】him on the ground. That was fun. He could do summersaults and fly through the air well, walk through the air in reality. The day came for take-off. Sam felt really f【7】because he knew nothing about what would happen after taking off. He was with two other people and an instructor.
