Coconino Coalition for Children & Youth’s Early Childhood Fair on Sept. 28 is included in festival’s passport. Free tickets also available for NAU’s Kitt Recital Hall
As the Flagstaff Festival of Science prepares to go To the Moon and Beyond during its 30th anniversary season, the W. L. Gore & Associates Keynote Presentation featuring Apollo 16 astronaut General Charlie Duke at 7 p.m., Friday, Sept. 20, is sold out for seating in Northern Arizona University’s Ardrey Auditorium. In an effort to make Duke’s talk as accessible as possible, the Festival is live-streaming the keynote for the first time ever on YouTube and creating overflow space in NAU’s nearby Kitt Recital Hall, where the presentation can be viewed on two screens.
The Flagstaff Festival of Science will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 21 at Wheeler Park in downtown Flagstaff.
Check out the Lunar Rover replica robot created and demonstrated by local teen CocoNuts! Explore other worlds in 3D with planetary geologists, get muddy with archaeologists, fix holes in hearts with engineers in the Gore tent and count down to a rocket launch at 1 p.m. Today you’re a scientist!
