NASA release useful resources for IYA2009
10 August 2009
NASA is using two robotic probes to study the Moon, creating a detailed atlas and analysing our natural satellite. Known as the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) and The Lunar CRater Observation and Sensing satellite (LCROSS), they are missions to interest and inspire the public.
To help spread the word to the public at large, NASA have released resources centred around the missions. Of particular interest to IYA2009 supporters are the presentations and videos which can be used at star parties, and other events.
Information and resources are available by following these links:
