Star Party: Apollo 11 Lunar Landing, 50th Anniversary-Rapid City
Jul 19, 2019 8:30 pm - 11:59 pm
The evening will begin with a special presentation video of the Apollo 11 mission assembled from a number of original live coverage sources including newly restored NASA footage and home video taken by folks who drove to Cocoa Beach, Florida in the summer of 1969 to watch history in the making.
After the presentation, sky observing will include Jupiter and Saturn with the Moon rising around 11 pm. Limited seating is available for the outdoor presentation. Bringing a camp chair is recommended to guarantee a seat.
Event may be cancelled due to inclement weather. Cancellations are generally last minute in hopes the sky will clear. Check our Facebook https://www.facebook.com/sdbhas or website https://sdbhas.org/ for a cancellation notice.
