Please join us at the USS Hornet as we celebrate the anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon mission-specifically the successful splashdown and recovery of the Apollo 11 astronauts by the USS Hornet. We are extra excited this year due to the recent Artemis II Mission that flew around the Moon and then was recovered in the Pacific Ocean off of San Diego.
Featuring a presentation about the Apollo 11 Command Module 3D laser scan. This project allowed an unprecedented look inside the Command Module. For some background on this amazing project please watch this video: Apollo 11 Command Module | 3D Documentation
We have completely rebuilt our Apollo exhibit and that will be on full display.
In addition, we will have a NASA Solar System Ambassador who will be able to talk about all things NASA-including the exciting new Artemis Program which will bring astronauts back to the Moon!
Several other temporary exhibits will include a Model Rocket Display, a Travelling Space Exhibit, ASTRA and more!
