Event Description:
The only thing more extraordinary than the science we are learning about the Moon is its incredible beauty.
Chabot’s stunning new photographic essay explores the Moon’s sweeping craters and once-active volcanoes, with photos by NASA astronauts who witnessed its beautiful desolation firsthand, new views captured by our own astronomers using Chabot’s reflecting telescope, and images taken via satellite that allow us to explore places we have not even yet visited. Featuring more than 50 stunning high-resolution images, lunar artifacts and interactive opportunities for all ages, this exhibition invites the public to consider the Moon in new ways. Open June 22 - September 8, 2019.
