Celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Apollo 11
Journey back to the Moon with NASA’s Noah Petro, deputy project scientist for the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, and glimpse breathtaking images taken by the LRO of the original lunar landing site of the Apollo 11 mission. Celebrate the 50th anniversary of this bold mission with Dr. Petro, who will share an up-close look at this legendary site and discuss how the lunar surface images taken by the LRO will guide scientists as they plan our next mission back to our cosmic neighbor.
