When The Sky Turns Dark

A total solar eclipse will soon cross over much of North America, including large swaths of the United States on April 8 (the first since 2017).  Join UW-Madison Speaker Jonathan Rebelsky to better understand how, when, and why eclipses happen.

Thanks to a grant from the STAR NET Community, free eclipse-viewing glasses will be made available at this event.  Registration is optional and walk-ins are welcome.  To receive an email reminder, please sign up below.
