Program Description

Body

Join us for our Summer Reading Kick-Off Party, featuring a presentation from the Moonshot Muserum right here in Pittsburgh!

Embark on a high-octane lunar science expedition complete with colorful chemistry, spellbinding spaceflight animations, theatric audience participation, and a sneak peek at the riveting work of local space industry professionals. Discover intrepid robots exploring the Moon and hear from the incredible team on the ground that makes it all possible.  Map the Moon from orbit, touchdown on ancient volcanic rocks, and voyage to the Moon’s South Pole with Pittsburgh-built spacecraft.  America is returning to the Moon, and Pittsburgh is leading the way!

This program is family friendly and geared for students going into elementary school.
