DESCRIPTION:Join the New Mexico Museum of Space History for the next Launch Pad Lecture on December 5\, Preservation Moon: Defining and Preserving the Cultural Landscape of Tranquility Base\, presented by our new Executive Director\, Karen Kincaid Brady. \nPreservation Moon offers a compelling reflection on one of humanity’s most remarkable achievements. On July 20\, 1969\, at 4:17 PM EDT\, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin made history by landing at Tranquility Base. Just hours later\, at 10:56 PM EDT\, a command center in Houston received Armstrong’s iconic words as he stepped onto the lunar surface\, marking a pivotal moment in exploration and in the annals of human history. The program revisits this historic event through captivating communications from the Houston command center\, along with archival images\, videos\, and satellite data. Moreover\, Preservation Moon delves into Tranquility Base as a cultural landmark\, emphasizing the importance of preserving this extraordinary site for future generations. \nWHEN: Friday\, December 5\, 2025 – 9:00 a.m.\nWHERE: New Horizons Dome Theater\, New Mexico Museum of Space History\, Alamogordo\, NM\nADMISSION: Free; co \nffee and donuts providednew executive director of the New Mexico Museum of Space History and the first female to lead the museum.  She brings more than a decade of leadership experience in museum management\, historic preservation\, and public programming.
