Enjoy an insightful presentation into the science of solar eclipses; exploring the alignment of the Sun, Moon, and Earth that leads to these awe-inspiring occurrences. Through stunning visuals and animations, we will illustrate the various stages of the eclipse, from the initial partial phases to the dramatic moment of totality. We will also review safety precautions in seeing a solar eclipse.
Every attendee will receive a pair of safe shade direct sun viewing glasses for the upcoming Total Solar Eclipse event on April 8, 2024! To enhance the experience, each family will have the exciting opportunity to craft their very own cardboard viewers too! Light refreshments will be served.
