On Thursday, October 8 from 10 p.m. until Friday, October 9 around 2 a.m. at Lanihuli Observatory, astronomy professor Joe Ciotti hopes to video record the impact of NASA’s lunar-sensing satellite as it intentionally collides into a crater near the south pole of the moon where evidence of water is proven to exist.
Students and the community are welcome to witness live video images as the LCROSS lunar probe impacts the moon and also view a NASA video describing the LCROSS mission. The event at Lanihuli Observatory is free and open to the public.
