Astronomy is a science of eons. In the cosmos, things change over millions or billions of years. Most transient events in the sky are due to happenings in our own solar system.
Our understanding of our own solar system has changed significantly since the advent of spacecraft exploration. Water was once believed very scarce in our corner of the galaxy but we now realize this is not the case.
You are invited to a Zoom meeting called "Shoot the Moon" in which we use live views of the crescent Moon to examine its major features like craters and mountains, and talk about their formation.
