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.
