As part of NASA’s International Observe the Moon Night (IOTM), we’ll be taking a look at the moon in a different light. Our nearest companion in space holds key clues about the formation of the solar system, and may serve as a launch pad - literally - for the future of space exploration. Join Standley Lake Stargazing for an in-depth look at the history and possible future of exploration of our moon!

Hosted by Ron Havermann and Aric Vyhmeister
