Eclipse
Much folklore surrounds eclipses, which occur when one celestial body passes through the shadow of another. In this workshop, students will explore the evolution of the science that led to the current view of the Earth-Moon-Sun system. From this foundation, we will learn how to predict and observe eclipses. Finally, students will build pinhole cameras that will allow them to observe an eclipse safely.
This is an in-person workshop.
