During a conversation with Abi who asked I spread the news about International Comet Day I started to think about how this community would benefit from a Lunar Mission Calendar of events. I've therefore started one below.

The idea here is that each of the entries could act as a potential focus for content and activity that might appear on the forum, LM1 Club, and/or public archive. There's a mixture of space, science, arts and humanities, and human events. It's not so important all of these events are used, but rather that they can act as a catalyst for the development of community engagement.

If you have more that could lead to conversations and content, please reply with your ideas in a post and they can be added to the list:

@Mike, that's absolutely brilliant! Thank you...nice headstart to my scheduled tweets, too...

Would anyone like to add any other days to the LM1 calendar? I'd like to add another event for 3rd October - the first online performance of the Skylight Global Science Opera, featuring Lunar Mission One! More details coming soon..

That's noted, thanks Angela. Will you be sharing your musical talent during this show?

I think we should add 13th August, which is International Left Handers Day
