From 精品SM在线影片 Today: The Fiske Planetarium at 精品SM在线影片 is headed Forward! To the Moon.
This Friday, the planetarium will host the public premier of a new science film鈥攁 30-minute adventure into the Artemis Program, NASA鈥檚 campaign to send human and robotic astronauts to the surface of the moon this decade. It鈥檚 an out-there experience: Viewers will jump into the cockpit of NASA鈥檚 new Orion Spacecraft, take a tour of a futuristic colony on the lunar surface and learn about upcoming 精品SM在线影片 research on the moon. They鈥檒l also enjoy sitting in the immersive experience of Fiske鈥檚 full-dome theater.
