You are invited to a Zoom webinar.
When: Apr 11, 2020 07:00 AM Pacific Time (US and Canada)
Topic: Breakfast On The Moon #3 – A celebration of Apollo 13, Yuri’s Night, Space Shuttle STS-1, and the launch of the Hubble Space Telescope.
Register in advance for this webinar:
On Saturday morning, April 11th, from 7:00-9:00 AM PDT (2:00-4:00 PM UTC), the National Space Society (NSS) Chapters’ Assembly and the Sacramento L5 Society NSS chapter will host the latest in their ongoing series celebrating the various 50th anniversaries of the manned Apollo missions to the Moon. (We call these celebrations “Breakfast on the Moon,” since we begin these virtual meetings very early in the morning on the West Coast in order to reach folks east of us, clear around to the other side of the world – while everyone’s still awake!)
The highlight of the celebration will surely be the taped interview with Captain James Lovell, on Apollo 13 (4/11/1970) and Apollo 8 (12/21/1968).
Regarding the particulars of the celebration, the actual live session will be limited to 100 reserved seats. Some seats are already reserved for Chapters’ Assembly Representatives and special guests. All others are on a first come, first served basis. To reserve a seat, please contact Joseph Bland, NSS Chapters’ Assembly Chair, at [email protected]. We will then put you on the list and send you the information you will need to attend the Zoom session.
We will also attempt a simulcast on YouTube Live. To access the YouTube Live event, go to the Sacramento L5 Society YouTube channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC30Nu–k19f3t7qoZjhtgHA We will begin broadcasting a few minutes before 7:00 AM PDT.
