Solar Eclipse Viewing
April 8 @ 2:04 pm–4:33 pm EDT
Weather permitting, the Astronomical Society of Greenbelt will provide safe telescope views of the April 8 solar eclipse at the City of Greenbelt Observatory. The eclipse starts at 2:04 pm, reaches its maximum of 89% at 3:20 pm, and ends at 4:33 pm. Eclipse glasses will be distributed while supplies last.
The event is open to members and non-members of all ages at no cost. We provide a fun, family-friendly environment for learning about the universe. This is a great way to meet other astronomers in the community. And, if you are new to the hobby, members are always willing to help you learn how to use your telescope.
In accordance with Prince George’s County guidelines, masks are voluntary.
