Dear Planetary Society Members and Friends
in the Toronto area,
The Planetary Society invites you to a public evening
held in conjunction with the 2005 International Lunar Conference being held in Toronto. We hope you will join Buzz Aldrin and other leaders in lunar exploration, at "Exploring the Moon: Big Plans for the Next Decade," which will be held on
Tuesday, September 20
7:00 - 9:00 p.m.
at the
Northern Lights Ballroom of the
Renaissance Toronto Hotel Downtown

Speakers will include leaders from lunar programs
around the world. Nearly all of the world's spacefaring
nations have plans to extensively explore the Moon in
the next ten years and beyond, and this evening will be a unique opportunity for the public to learn and get excited about these upcoming missions.
Speakers will include:
* Buzz Aldrin, Apollo 11 astronaut, who on
July 20, 1969, along with Neil Armstrong, landed
their Lunar Module on the moon's Sea of Tranquility and
became the first two humans to walk on the moon.

Agency & Executive director of the International Lunar Exploration Working Group
