Cliff\, then the Chief of the United States Forest Service\, who convinced Stuart Roosa\, the Command Module Pilot on the Apollo 14 mission\, to bring a small canister containing about 500 seeds aboard the module in 1971. Seeds for the experiment were chosen from five species of tree: loblolly pine\, sycamore\, sweetgum\, redwood\, and Douglas fir.[2][3] In 2022\, NASA announced it would be reviving the Moon tree program by carrying 1\,000 seeds aboard Artemis I.[4] \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nQ-Park Car Parking Discount\n\n\n\nFor those of you travelling into the city centre by car\, don’t forget that you can get 20% off parking at Q-Park Hanover Street by using the promo-code QUAKERSLV when pre-booking through the website Q-Park \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLivestream & Recording Information\n\n\n\nThis meeting will be held at our normal venue of the Quaker Meeting House\, and may be live-streamed via YouTube\, if I get the equipment set up in time 😊 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA recording may be available. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSubscription Info \n\n\n\nIf you have not yet become a Member of the Society and wish to join\, please see our Membership of the Liverpool Astronomical Society page before sending any payment. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote: Membership Fees are correct as of October 2025 \n\n\n\nMembership TypePriceAdults (18 & above) Annual Subscription£25.00Juniors (14-17 inclusive) Annual Subscription£5.00\n\n\n\nPlease note:Subscriptions are due from 1st October each year and must be paid by January 31st or your membership may be suspended.If not paid by 31st March your membership will cease. \n\n\n\nPaying your Subscription Electronically (e.g. via e-banking)\n\n\n\nYou can now pay for your subscription via Internet banking.  \n\n\n\nName:Liverpool Astronomical SocietySort Code:60-19-24Account No.:28521250Payment Ref.:Use your full name (or as much of it as possible\, remove spaces if needed) as the reference\, so that our Treasurer can connect your payment to the correct account in the books.\n\n\n\nPlease contact the Treasurer if you require more information. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore information about membership can be found here. \n\n\n\nThe LAS e-newsletter is now included in your normal subscription cost. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFree tea/coffee with light refreshments break will form part of the evening at about 8pm. \n\n\n\nPlease note – Doors will only open after 18:30 and not before. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI do hope you can join me and your fellow members\, but if you are unable to attend\, please indicate your apologies to me by filling out this form. \n\n\n\nWith best wishes – Mark
