Just wondering if any depositories are doing any displays/exhibits and
programs commemorating the 50th anniversary of the moon landing on July
20th.

This certainly would be a great opportunity for the depository to shine.

You could:

-- Invite astronomers to speak about the significance of the event and what
the future entails.

-- Talk about water in the moon.

-- Use titles and posters featuring NASA astronauts,  CD-ROM/DVD-ROM,
Congressional hearings,  etc from the collection.

-- Feature video of the lunar landing

-- Create programs for kids to get them excited about astronomy such as
NASA coloring books.

-- Get science teachers to do nifty experiments and demonstrations

There are so many things you could do.
