Moon 2 Mars Fun Run

The Moon 2 Mars Fun Run is a high-energy community celebration that brings people together around movement, exploration, and shared excitement for space.
Continuing the Foundation’s recognition of historic Mars milestones, the event is inspired by the legacy of NASA’s Viking 2 lander and the spirit of exploration it represents.
