Description
NEVER look up at the SUN! NASA Partner Eclipse Ambassador, Virginia Renehan, will visit Halibut Point State Park offering a family-fun solar eclipse readiness program! The Moon is much smaller than the Sun, so how does it totally block the sun? Bring your curious questions and participate in safe sun activities to enjoy this upcoming powerful rare event. Free NASA safe solar-viewing glasses, make your own moon phase clock, use 3 different safe-sun viewing telescopes, and more! Co-Sponsored with Gloucester Area Astronomy Club (GAAC).
