Space Center Houston welcomes people from around the globe to experience the legacy of the first lunar landing. Celebrate the 50th anniversary of the lunar landing and its remarkable achievements among an array of significant Apollo artifacts under one roof. Throughout this year and 2019 Space Center Houston will honor the Apollo era anniversaries with special events and we’ll take a look back at the historic feats of the Apollo era.

Space Center Houston’s fall luncheon To the Moon and Beyond on Oct. 23 will honor Apollo flight director Gene Kranz and proceeds will further benefit the restoration of Historic Mission Control. The nonprofit science and space exploration learning center is leading the fundraising to restore Historic Mission Control and preserve this National Historic Landmark, which changed the course of human history. The historic site will be restored by the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11 in July 2019.
