A collection of 6 meteorite pieces from the Moon discovered in various locations in Africa. There is also a piece of a meteorite from Mars for comparison.

Simulated moon dirt that is "made of several terrestrial minerals, and accurately captures the texture of lunar regolith by combining both mineral and rock fragments in precise  proportions." 

An 8 foot by 7.5 foot backdrop featuring a simulated image of astronauts working on the Moon with the Earth and Milky Way Galaxy in the background.  This 'Apollo meets Artemis' image is a composition of Apollo-era imagery (the Earth as imaged by Apollo 15 astronauts and the lunar surface as imaged by Apollo 17 astronauts),  a concept drawing of astronauts collecting samples during a future Artemis mission, and the Milky Way Galaxy.

Art meets science in this pair of of moon sketches created by SFU engineering student Anna Belle Stover featuring the near and far sides of the Moon. 

A gallery of ten images of the moon showcasing unique features of the lunar landscape taken by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter. When visitors place red/blue glasses over their eyes, the images should appear in 3D. 

Visitors can explore the surface of the moon on this touch-screen computer with NASA's Moon Trek.

The Apollo 17 landing site is available to view and touch with notable areas highlighted in accompanying imagery.

This beautiful glow-in-the-dark globe allows visitors to hold the Moon in their hands and to investigate lunar craters and maria. Jacob Garrity, Mark Koskinen, and Kevin Salmon, three undergraduate SFU students, honed their 3D fabrication skills in the creation of this component. The model was created using data obtained by NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter. 

Jonah Royer, an SFU engineering student, worked on 3D fabrication of dwellings on the moon. With the dwellings, children will explore optimal shapes and materials for effective construction of facilities on the Moon.

Explore the many features of the Moon with this globe.

A fun photo opportunity exists with these astronaut cutouts:

• kneeling - 3 feet tall

• standing - 5 feet tall

• standing with flag - 6 feet tall

Lunar Lander cutout - 6 feet tall

This image shows astronauts working on the Solar Max satellite inside the payload bay of Space Shuttle Challenger during mission STS-41C in April 1984. During the nearly 7-day trip, astronauts traveled 2.9 million miles.

These samples of igneous rock from Earth are similar to what you would find on the Moon. 

These two-foot-tall models of NASA's Space Launch System (SLS) shows how future astronauts will travel to the Moon. One is made of bricks.

This brick model depicts the Orion spacecraft that will carry humans to and from the Moon.
