Exploring the Moon

What we learned from the Apollo Programme

Whether you attended the two previous talks on the Apollo Moon landings or not, this presentation is for you. In this special, extended discussion, Chris Benton expands on the topic, reviewing in depth the Apollo experiments conducted from both lunar orbit and the surface, as well as the types of rocks from different regions of the Moon returned by the twelve moonwalkers. Come along and learn how scientists correlated the invaluable data to determine a timeline detailing the Moon’s origin and evolution to how we see it today, including why the near and far sides differ in appearance and geology.
