What is a solar eclipse, why do they happen, and why are they so rare? How have eclipses shaped history and what we will see here in New Jersey on April 8? Join us as we screen a series of YouTube and course videos to learn all about the science and astronomy behind eclipses.

All attendees will receive a pair of eclipse viewing glasses (one per person while supplies last).

Eclipse glasses are provided by the Space Science Institute STARnet program and funded by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation.  For safe eclipse viewing visit the American Astronomical Society’s webpage.

This event will be on Monday 3/18 from 6:30 to 7:30 pm.
