SUMMARY:Introduction to Astronomy July 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Apollo Moon Landings\nThe Lost Missions \nIn July 1969\, Apollo 11 rightfully garnered a great deal of media attention and will forever be enshrined in history. However\, five successful landings followed from November 1969 to December 1972\, which history has all but forgotten. Chris Benton reviews all six missions\, illustrating how each one was more technologically and scientifically advanced than the previous. Come along and learn what these pioneering missions achieved\, who the astronauts were\, plus enjoy a visual tour with lesser-known photographs from each mission\, including panoramic views of the lunar landscape\, and what the landing sites look like today. We will also discuss the findings of the many surface experiments and what the lunar rocks tell us about our Moon’s past. \nThere’s something in this talk for everyone\, from those curious about all six landings\, members wanting to know more about lunar science\, to everyone who likes to enjoy high-definition moonscape images on our big screen. Come along to learn\, enjoy and have fun!
