The Parkes Observatory held Open Days to commemorate the 50th
anniversary of the Apollo 11 moonwalk over the weekend of 20-21 July
2019. A series of talks was given over the two days by CASS staff and
invited speakers, covering topics including the Parkes role in Apollo
11, the Apollo discoveries, the role of Parkes in the Search for
Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence, and the making of the movie Apollo 11
by the archive director, Stephen Slater. Also mingling with the crowd
over the weekend were the two moon-walking astronauts pictured above!
