The Moon, Earth's only permanent natural satellite and the fifth largest satellite in the Solar System, has long been the subject of scientific research and artistic expression. The National Maritime Museum has launched The Moon exhibition in Greenwich, London, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing. The exhibition charts the cultural and scientific story of our relationship with Earth’s natural satellite.
