Moonwalkers

On one side of the planet, Apollo 11 blasts off to the moon. On the other Billy, Mickey and Buzz set off on their own astronaut adventures.

Dream astronaut dreams and celebrate Australia's role in the moon landing of 1969!

Moonwalkers is a story of joy, imagination and adventure, from the brilliant minds of author Mark Greenwood and illustrator Terry Denton.

Read by Lucas Taylor at the Melbourne Observatory, Moonwalkers allows viewers to get lost in space, as if looking through their very own telescope.

After watching the story, learn more about space and the Melbourne Observatory with Lucas' interviews with Melbourne Observatory Demonstrator Russell Cockman, (located in the More Videos section of this page) and flip to the back of any copy of the Moonwalkers book to discover more about the Apollo 11 Mission to the Moon!
