"Philly Moon Men: Inspiring Astronomers on South Street"

Brothers Brendan Happe and Bill Green, known as Philly Moon Men, have been setting up telescopes on South Street in Philadelphia to share their passion for astronomy with the public. Their sidewalk astronomy initiative aims to reconnect people with the wonders of the universe and fight against light pollution. By offering free telescope views of celestial objects like Saturn and Jupiter, they hope to inspire others to explore the night sky and appreciate the beauty of the cosmos. Their unique project has gained a following in the city and serves as a refreshing attraction on the historic street.
