Expectations will be exceeded at this year’s affair featuring rare appearances, speeches, and on-stage conversations between some of the most notable astronauts from the era and space industry innovators. Gala guests will hear first-hand how astronauts prepared for their flights and overcame the many challenges for mankind to walk on the moon.

As we celebrate this monumental time in history, both Foundations are increasing awareness of human space exploration on a global basis while raising funds for education and awarding scholarships.
