On the final day of Space Week everyone will have a video of themselves sending a signal to the moon with their voice and hearing their own voice bounce off the moon and return to earth. We expect to have speakers from NASA and Princeton University.
Activities are indoors and outdoors and include a visit to the InfoAge Radio Museum, The Original Marconi Tower and a trip to see Mobile Radar Units.
Learn about the history of the Space Program and the exciting events that took place right here at the Diana Site in Wall Township that launched the Space Program.
Use the 18 meter Radio Telescope Dish to send your voice to the moon and hear it bounce back in 2.5 seconds!
