Eclipse Party

Aug 21, 2017 at 11:00 AM - 3:00 PM

Stolkin Auditorium and the Quad

There is going to be a partial solar eclipse visible from Syracuse on Monday August 21. To accentuate this celestial event and promote greater science understanding, the Physics Department will be hosting an Eclipse Party.

We will start with live streaming of the eclipse starting at 11 am in Stolkin Auditorium (located in the Physics Building). Prof. Carl Rosenzweig will give a short talk on celestial mechanics and why eclipses are not more frequently seen. Following the talk will come the actual eclipse, and we invite all attendees to join us on the quad right outside the Physics Building. We will have two telescopes focused on the sun for up close and personal viewing of this rare occasion. We will also have a limited amount of solar viewing glasses, so you can witness the event without damaging your eyes. Never look at the sun without proper eye protection, even during a partial eclipse.

West Lot and Irving Garage at available for parking at no charge for anyone wanting to come to campus to watch the eclipse on Monday

Host: Sam Sampere. Contact: Yudaisy Salomon Sargenton, 315-443-3901
