BRAC Monthly Meeting: Early Apollo Missions

Dr. Neal Sumerlin: Early Apollo Missions

More than fifty years later, the American Apollo lunar program remains as the most spectacular achievement of human space flight. We'll track the program from JFK’s famous “We choose to go to the Moon . . ." to the splashdown of Armstrong, Aldrin, and Collins in the Apollo 11 command module.

Dr. Sumerlin is the founding director of the Belk Observatory. His background is in nuclear chemistry, but he also has a passion for and taught many courses in astronomy. He has a blog called Star Struck, and gives lectures frequently in the area.

BRAC Monthly Meeting: Tues., Aug. 19, 7:30pm.
