Program Description

Event Details

All ages. A total solar eclipse of the Sun will take place on April 8, 2024! This is when the Sun is completely hidden by the moon and the sky becomes dark, making for an eerie “night in the middle of the day.” In Lansing, 96% percent coverage of the sun will be visible. Weather permitting, join us to safely observe the sun with a solar telescope, Sunoculars, and free solar-viewing glasses. If the weather does not cooperate for sunny outdoor viewing, we will be showing a live stream of the eclipse from NASA.
