Join the NASA Night Sky Network on Thursday, September 20 at 6pm Pacific/9pm Eastern, when NASA's Andrea Jones will share with us plans for this year's International Observe the Moon Night.
International Observe the Moon Night is a worldwide, public celebration of lunar science and exploration held annually since 2010. One day each year, we encourage everyone on Earth to observe and learn about the Moon together, its connections to planetary science and exploration, and to celebrate the cultural and personal connections we all have with Earth’s nearest neighbor. This year, International Observe the Moon Night is also a perfect opportunity to highlight the Apollo program 50th anniversary.
It’s just one month after our webinar: October 20, 2018! Come learn more about the program, associated resources, and how you and your club can participate.
