When the Sun Goes Dark

Getting Ready for the Great Solar Eclipse

Learn facts about the Sun, how eclipses come to be and why we don't have them all the time.

To those who have traveled the globe and witnessed a total eclipse of the Sun, nearly all excitedly admit that it was a life-altering experience. While not everyone can travel to the line of totality, nearly 500 million North Americans can enjoy at least a partial eclipse - weather permitting.  Prepare your own "device" to safely track the August 21st eclipse's progress from your own backyard in NJ or from anywhere in the USA!
Weather permitting, we'll get a chance to safely observe the sun using a specialized telescope.
Presented by amateur astronomer Bob Reichman.
Ages 9+ are welcome with an adult.
