This coming Thursday, 22 September, in Chicago, you can attend an advanced screening of the new movie Magnificent Desolation: Walking on the Moon 3D. The film re-creates moments in the Apollo moonwalks in the wide-screen, three-dimensional IMAX projection process. As the filmmakers say, "Only twelve have walked on the Moon. You're next."
I've been helping to organize this event, which will raise funds for the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation and the National Space Society. Captain James Lovell, of Apollo 13 and Apollo 8, was kind enough to provide us with an invitation letter, which I'll append.
The Navy Pier complex is in downtown Chicago, at the lake, at 600 East Grand Avenue.

Extensive notes on the film's production may be found at http://www.imax.com/magnificentdesolation/site/downloads/notes.pdf.
