Aerospace expert Bruce Ewenson presents: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Moon — We Discovered Earth!  This exciting program is for ages 8 to adult. 

In 1968, the first time astronauts left the confines of Earth orbit, we saw our home planet in its entirety for the first time. While reaching for the Moon, we came back with a much greater appreciation of the fragility of planet Earth and it provided us a platform to observe the seasons and cycles of the planet, as well as natural and man-made changes. Come along on a voyage to the home planet, explore the continents, discover a world without lines on a map, and test your geography skills.

Learn how travelling to the moon gave scientists a much greater appreciation of the planet Earth — its seasons, cycles, climate and fragility.  Program is free with no registration required.
