Artemis II Live Launch Party at the McAuliffe-Shepard Discovery Center
Details
COST: $ 5 per person - can purchase ticket at the door
Join us to watch history being made (on our big screen “Digital Wall”) as the Space Launch System’s Artemis rocket launches humans past the moon for the first time in over 50 years! Live launch party at New England’s premier Air & Space museum. Four time Space Shuttle astronaut Daniel Bursch will be joining us via Zoom with commentary and taking questions from the audience.
From MSDC FB page:
"Witness history in the making as humans return to the Moon!
Join the McAuliffe-Shepard Discovery Center for a front-row launch experience featuring live coverage, insights from retired astronaut Daniel Bursch, and a celebration of New Hampshire’s role in Artemis II mission.
Be part of the excitement as we count down to liftoff and cheer on the next giant leap."
Once you have purchased your admission ticket, meet us inside the museum by the “Shaky Shack” - a replica of the original 1930’s Mount Washington Weather Observatory. When everyone is there, we’ll do a quick group photo and then head upstairs to watch the launch.
PLEASE NOTE: The 2-hour launch window opens at 6:54 PM on April 1st, so liftoff could occur anytime between 6:54 and 8:54. Launches are often delayed or scrubbed, so there is no guarantee that the liftoff will occur during the target window. I will keep tabs on the schedule and update this post if changes to the schedule occur, so check back here often.
