A totally stellar event is coming soon to Shores & Islands Ohio…a total solar eclipse. On April 8, 2024, the moon will completely block out the sun for a rare celestial event. Due to our global position directly in the path of totality, the communities in and around Shores & Islands Ohio will enjoy incredible, unobstructed viewing times of approximately four minutes—one of the longest durations in the entire region! Kelly Sommers is the STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) coach for Sandusky City Schools and also head of programming for the Sidney Frohman Planetarium. Kelly joins Jill and Dayton to educate us all on eclipses, why this one is so special, and how everyone can safely enjoy the event, stress-free. We learn why you shouldn’t try to take photos of an eclipse event with your phone and when it is safe to remove your protective eyewear (and what cool thing you might see!) Kelly also tells us all about the planetarium’s year-round offerings and how it provides information on our solar system, not just to local school students, but to the general public as well. Get ready for an out-of-this world podcast! Learn more at scs-k12.net/sanduskyplanetarium.com and SHORESandISLANDSeclipse.com.
