Explore the diverse landscape of our moon, explore highlands, volcanic plains, and moon mission landing sites. Join park staff in viewing lunar features and discovering where moon landings took place among them. We'll also catch a glimpse of Jupiter and maybe Venus. We run the scopes, you enjoy the view!

🌌Milky Way Visibility (if clear skies): Poor. Bright full moon drowns the fainter Milky Way. Most visible after 4:30 AM, after this program has ended and the moon has set.
