WCA-KPL Public Talk - The Science of Solar Eclipses (Roan Haggar)

On April 8, Southern Ontario will witness a total solar eclipse for the first time in nearly 100 years, as the Moon blocks out the light of the Sun for several minutes. Total eclipses are an amazing spectacle but have also played a key role throughout history in our understanding of science. At this month's KPL astronomy talk, Dr. Roan Haggar will speak about the upcoming solar eclipse, and what eclipses have taught us about the Sun, our Solar System, and the Universe.

Monday, April 8, 2024 1:00 pm - 6:30 pm EDT (GMT -04:00)
