2019 Moon Day Event Recap

The Frontiers of Flight Museum celebrated the 50th Anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission on July 20, 2019 at Moon Day. The museum collaborates with the National Space Society of North Texas to hold the largest annual space-themed exposition in Texas. Moon Day honors the past, present, and future of space exploration with a full day of family-friendly, entertaining STEM programs and activities. Over three dozen exhibitors participated in Moon Day, including the Dallas SWE section. And we had a blast! Visitors participated in our Comic Catapult challenge. While this challenge didn’t really launch them into space, the visitors built catapults and learned the concept of energy, gravity, and the Laws of Motion. A huge thank you to the amazing SWE volunteers for their help in making Moon Day 2019 a resounding success.
