Leonardo Da Vinci’s genius and Apollo 11’s space enterprise. The five hundred years since the death of Leonardo and the fifty from the walk on the Moon of Neil Armstrong are the leitmotif of “Leonardo: Luna = 500: 50”, the project of the Museum of Planetary Sciences that plays, with an extraordinary proportion, on the relationship between two undeniable greatnesses and that brings the show “Moon and neighborhoods” to the Politeama theater of Prato. The protagonist will be the famous journalist Tito Stagno, who fifty years ago realized the RAI live commentary on the satellite’s landing. With him, the spectators will retrace those exciting moments, the backstage and the curiosities that animated the rush to explore the lunar soil.
