We hear the adage, "Reach for the Stars," all the time, but it's rare to get the opportunity to actually touch an extraterrestrial object. But, if you head to the Schenectady Museum on July 12 and 13, you can touch a moon rock!
That's right! As part of NASA's travelling Driven to Explore Exhibit, visitors have a very special opportunity to touch a 4 billion-year-old moon rock.
NASA's Driven to Explore exhibit at the Schenectady Museum is open Thursday, July 12 from 12:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Friday, July 13 with last admission tickets sold one hour before closing. Planetarium shows will be offered 12:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. July 12 and 12:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. July 13.
