In this movie, there was a little town, with a coal mine. Most of the people in the town, worked on the coal mine all day long. The coal mine was the heart of the town or in other words the town was owned by it. Also, every store, restaurant, and all the houses were owned by the coal mine. But there was a person who wanted more than to just work on the coal mine, and his name was Homer. Homer wanted to build rocket ships for a living. Then, Homer knew he couldn't do this alone, so he asked the most unpopular kid at school, and he would have to do it at his own risk of being called a looser. But, Homer didn't care, he just blocked it out and they made a rocket that worked with a little help from Homer's older brothers. And finally, in the end the rocket flies and Homer learns that you can't judge a book by its cover.
