In December 2019, Astromaterials Research and Exploration Science (ARES) team member Ben Feist shared his experience bringing together audio, transcripts, video, and imagery to create the Apollo in Real Time website. The site enables users to experience Apollo missions as they occurred ~50 years ago.
Over 600 live participants and ~200 archive participants were involved in the event. Participants were from 25 different states and Mexico and included students in grades 2 - 12.
Numerous Science Activation Team Member target audiences including Solar System Ambassadors, Librarians, Museum Alliance folks, Night Sky Network folks, and other informal educators participated and indicated they will share the information and resource with members of the public they connect with.
