Experience the moon landing as you navigate through the library to our "observatory". Using stargazing simulation and the help of Francis O'Reilly, Vice-President of Springfield Telescope Makers, we'll travel through space to look at planets, stars, and constellations. Mr. O'Reilly will discuss telescope-making and some history of the moon landing.
Light snacks and beverages will be served.
