Tommy Tomorrow applies at Rocket College in 1954. He learns rocket engineering and masters astronomy. Upon graduation, because he has the highest grades of his class, the Army chooses him for "Operation Mars". After another year of training, in August 1960, Tommy Tomorrow blasts off for Mars. Days later he arrives at his destination. He plants an American flag, becoming the first man ever to set foot on another world.
