Safely observe the sun with us, and prepare for the Total Solar Eclipse! During these family-friendly sessions, a DDO Astronomer will answer your questions about our closest star: the sun! Learn how the sun works and why solar eclipses happen. Views of the sun through small telescopes will be included, weather permitting. All participants will leave with eclipse glasses for safe solar observing and enjoy a tour of the RHDDO facility. Please wear / bring appropriate supplies for being outside. All individuals/family members attending this program must be registered and a registered adult must accompany any registered participants under the age of 16.
