Time: 4:30-5:15 pm
Description: Iapetus is the third largest moon of Saturn with a unique two-toned surface.
Not only does Iapetus have a light and dark side but also a ridge that runs along the
equator! We will discuss this moon, look at some images from the surface, learn about
how it formed, the difference between the colors on the surface, and how the ridge came
to be! A craft will follow.
