50th Anniversary of the Moon Landing

Fifty years ago, the first two humans landed on the Moon. This huge achievement was made possible by a team of more than 400,000 men and women here on Earth.

The UK Association for Science and Discovery Centres (ASDC) worked in partnership with The UK Space Agency to bring together and share the huge range of Moon events, festivals, activities and resources created as a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the first Moon landings.

Read about the UK events and activities for families, schools (and grown-ups) on the Moon Portal created with The UK Space Agency www.Moon50.uk

With Moon parties, exhibitions, special live events, ASDC collated events and activities in science centres and museums that engaged the public with the science and stories of the first moon landings.
