The Phillip Capozzi, M.D., Library will be hosting a solar eclipse watch party. This eclipse will travel across the eastern United States. The path of totality will cross over western New York. Our region will see ~90% starting at 2:11pm, with the best viewing at 3:26pm.
A solar eclipse is when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun. It’s important not to look directly at the Sun and use protective glasses or project the image on the ground using a pinhole device.
The next U.S. total solar eclipse will be August 2044.
