Directors from the International Lunar Observatory Association (ILOA) will give a presentation on the series of Astronomy Moon Missions they are advancing – from Hawai`i to the Moon with Aloha. We will then provide guided Moon observations highlighting points of interest, including the location that ILOA landed its precursor mission in February 2024, and the two potential landing sites for their upcoming ILO-1 flagship mission to the lunar South Pole region – Malapert Summit and Mons Mouton. Both of these majestic Mountains on the Moon, provide stellar vantage points to conduct observations and communications with the stars, Earth, and the future human lunar base buildout.
