It was a very interesting and informative event, with free stickers, pins and posters! Thanks to all students that signed up and joined!

Annular Solar Eclipse!!
We will see a partial annular solar eclipse here in Tucson!
When? Saturday October 14th 2023! Max coverage will occur at 9:33am.
This means the Moon gets in front of the Sun and blocks some of the light! It is different than a total eclipse where all of the light from the Sun is blocked by the moon. Please learn about the safety of viewing this event and NEVER look directly into the sun without certified protections.
