I am somewhat hooked because I would be interested in a story about a 12 year old aspiring astronaut, but 'goes horribly wrong' doesn't really tell me much about the inciting incident, and 'makes contact in a way she never expected' - is this about alien contact or something completely different? ?As you say it's Scifi/ family then I assume there will be aliens of some sort but I feel we need to know something of major importance happens, for the girl. ?eg 'she must bridge the gulf between earth dwellers and aliens' ? 'she is the only one who can prevent a catastrophic point of contact' ?'she must take a journey beyond her wildest dreams' ... I don't know but I expect her to be more that a bystander to a monumentous event, somewhat dependent on what went horribly wrong in the first place. ? ? I'm sure this could be a great story, and more than just a short.

"When a 12 year old?terminal cancer patient who aspires?to become an?astronaut is granted a tour of the international space station, He?unexpectedly finds himself at?ground?zero of?humanity?s first recorded contact with?extra terrestrials."
Interesting, but not really my story at the moment.? Thank you though for the suggestion.
