I'll be there and this should be something to see.

Beginning July 16 — the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 launch — through July 18, a full-sized, 363-foot-tall (110-meter) Saturn V rocket will be projected onto the east face of the Washington Monument from 9:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. EDT.

I was looking for a way to save that graphic earlier, as it was in a format I was not familiar with. I will probably take a ride into DC one night next week to see this and snap a picture or two. Unfortunately my 6 year old son is overseas visiting grandma, so he will miss it (the Lego rocket is one of his favorite 'toys' -- I routinely have to put parts of it back together)

 

I made it into town tonight. Did my best to get decent photos with my phone. It was hard to avoid streetlights, etc. down low, so I played with settings manually. I might go back tomorrow night with a dslr.

 

@BlackTalon that is awesome! Thank you for your time and photos to share with the rest of us.

 

can it be shown streaming on July16?

 

Hmmm, seeing as how it is already July 18 I am guessing 'no'.

 

oh. i thought im watching from the moon. July 20, then is fine.
