Who Turned Out the Lights? Preparing for the Eclipse

Who Turned Out the Lights? Preparing for the Eclipse

Join the NIU Observatory’s Jeremy Benson as we learn all about eclipses! We’ll talk about what an eclipse is, what causes them, and the best ways to view them. We’ll also discuss how scientists can use eclipses to help answer questions, as well as how we can create our own tools to safely view the upcoming solar eclipse this April 8. Everyone who attends will also receive a free pair of eclipse glasses while supplies last.

This presentation is suitable for learners of all ages and is provided by the NIU Dept of Physics.
