NSN Webinar Series: Lunar Landing Sites, Past and Future
Channel: NASA Night Sky Network
Date: 2020-04-24

On April 23, 2020, the NASA Night Sky Network heard from Brian Day from NASA's Ames Research Center as he gave us an inside look at lunar landing sites past and future, what we learned and hope to learn.

As we celebrate 50 years of human exploration on the lunar surface, we'll take a look back at each of the Apollo landing sites and discuss why each site was chosen and what made each site so interesting. We'll then recap some of the fascinating things we've learned from robotic lunar missions that followed Apollo. Finally, we'll look ahead to some of the amazing sites we are considering for future missions to the Moon. We'll make use of NASA's Moon Trek portal (https://trek.nasa.gov/moon/) to conduct our exploration.
