U92: Moab's Uranium Legacy – Aftermath FREE OPENING

"U92: Moab’s Uranium Legacy" explores the geologic, political, and cultural stories surrounding uranium mining, both globally and locally. On July 19th, 2025, the Moab Museum is proud to announce the second phase of our Uranium exhibition. "U92: Aftermath" highlights the aftermath of this profound chapter in history. Humans and the ecosystem have suffered catastrophic effects, some paving the way for improved safety and environmental policies. Today, this “miraculous” mineral offers a widely recognized clean energy source, and its extraction can be conducted responsibly if implemented by policy. The exhibit poses the question: What changes are in place today to ensure a future in utilizing this powerful mineral is advantageous for all communities, and these beautiful lands?

Dr. Tommy Rock, water scientist of the Navajo Nation, will introduce the exhibition at 3 pm on Saturday, July 19th. The opening is FREE and open to all!
