The Catskills by Moonlight

Posted

LIVINGSTON MANOR, NY — On Friday, October 3 at 7 p.m., the public is invited to a presentation by Russ Johansen highlighting the lunar and interplanetary missions since Apollo and the new tools that will redefine astronomy. This free program is part of a month focused on the moon titled “Catskills By Moonlight” at Morgan Outdoors with Jim McKeegan and Russ Johansen. In addition to lunar exploration, the hour-long program will touch on the Cassini Mission to Saturn, the Rover Missions to Mars and the New Horizons mission, which will fly by Pluto next year.

The indoor program is followed by hands-on lunar viewing, where McKeegan will guide everyone across the lunar landscape by telescope. Highlights include craters large enough to hold entire cities and craggy mountains rivaling the Himalayas. McKeegan will also cover techniques for viewing the total lunar eclipse on October 8.
