Chapter Meeting

Join us the 3rd Thursday of the month for our chapter meeting!

Topic:  Eclipses 101, Get Ready for April 8, Total Solar Eclipse ( Zoom)

During this presentation, we will learn about solar eclipses. Find out why we had to wear solar eclipse glasses during the annular eclipse, but can remove them during totality during the upcoming, April 8, 2024, total eclipse. Learn how and why NASA studies eclipses, and find out how you can be involved in collecting eclipse data for NASA’s “GLOBE Observer” citizen science program.
