ABOUT THIS EVENT
On Monday, April 8, a total solar eclipse will trace a path across 13 states in the United States. Although North Carolina is not in the path of eclipse totality, a partial eclipse can still be seen from this area.
The Surry Community College Library will host a free viewing event from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. near the library on the Dobson campus. Glasses will be provided to attendees for watching the eclipse.
The next total solar eclipse that can be seen from the United States after 2024 will be August 23, 2044.
For questions about the viewing event, contact Maria Saldarriaga Osorio, SCC Director of Library Services, at (336) 386-3501 or osoriom@surry.edu.
The NC Science Festival's annual Statewide Star Party is made possible through the generous support of the NC Space Grant.
