One Small Step March 14, 2009

'One Small Step' is an amazing story of exploration, discovery and science that highlights the human connection with our closest celestial neighbor, the moon. Through this journey we uncover secrets of the ancient past and learn how and why we finally landed a man on the moon. During the show, visitors will experience an adventurous lunar mission and realize the complex sequence of events it takes to get to the moon and safely return home. Worldwide, space agencies are gearing up for a return to the moon by the year 2020. We are about to enter a whole new era of lunar travel and this presentation created by the Vanderbilt Planetarium's staff is the first public offering on the latest insights. With beautiful music, imagery and narration this 30-minute program will spark the imagination and excite the explorer in everyone.
