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.
