$5

Join us at Wiley Planetarium to celebrate October’s Harvest Moon and International Observe the Moon Night! We will begin with a tour of the October skies, check out some Apollo landing sites, then watch the planetarium film CAPCOM GO! The Apollo Story. If the skies are clear, we will observe the full moon with binoculars. Go home with resources to help you navigate the Moon.

CAPCOM Go!: On July 20th 1969, 600 million people around the world gathered to witness a historic moment of human achievement. The world celebrated as astronauts took their first steps on the Moon. But few people were aware of just how huge an effort it had taken to get them there. These Apollo 11 astronauts were just 2 of nearly 400,000 people who had worked over ten years towards this goal. How did they do it, and what did it take to put humans on the Moon? Find out with us!
