EPSF2022 kicks off with what is becoming a popular event of the week-long festival geared for the entire family. Returning will be interactive Experience Zones where you can learn about the different aspects of lunar and space exploration. In the meantime, take a look resources such: – NASA’s Artemis Mission that plans to return humans back to the moon, including the first woman and person of color. The first of these missions, Artemis 1 Mission, is scheduled for launch later this year. Travel with the mission virtually by adding your name to a flash drive that will fly aboard Artemis 1! Get your boarding pass here. – The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC) is a system of three cameras mounted on the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO). The LRO captures high resolution black and white images and moderate resolution multi-spectral images of the lunar surface. View some of their spectacular images, learn a bit about lunar science history, or visit moon craters and Apollo landing sites in a virtual tour of the Moon created by images captured by LROC
