Exploring the Moon in the Age of Artemis (A Free, Hybrid Lecture)

On November 20, 2026, at 7:30 PM, ET, Hamptons Observatory and Stony Brook University’s Department of Geosciences will present a free, hybrid lecture, “Exploring the Moon in the Age of Artemis.” In early 2028, for the first time in over 50 years astronauts will land on the Moon. What will they do when they get there? Prof. Timothy Glotch, the Chair of Geosciences, is one of 10 scientists selected by NASA to be on the team that will design those projects. In this talk, Prof. Glotch will discuss the Artemis program, provide an overview of the Moon’s geology, and describe the studies the astronauts will do during their exploration of the lunar surface.
