Footsteps on the Moon

Scienceworks 2 Booker Street, Spotswood

Saturday 20 July, 2019 marks the 50th anniversary of the first time humans walked on the Moon.

Celebrate this feat of human ambition and ingenuity with our special event featuring expert talks, Planetarium shows, VR experiences of the ISS, an Apollo 11 photography exhibition, telescope viewing (weather permitting) and more.
