A huge time capsule will be opened!

The Helium Time Column Monument was created in 1968 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the discovery of helium.

The monument has four time-capsule columns at the bottom and one is due to be opened in 2018.

Although nobody is 100% sure what’s in all of the the columns, the last – to be opened in 1968 – has a bank account book with $10 inside.

YOU could visit the moon!

In 2018, one company says it is definitely going to land ordinary people on the moon!
