There is nothing like a solar eclipse to inspire the wonder and awe of our place in the universe! We are excited to share this experience with our community. The eclipse begins at 1:59pm, maximum coverage is at 3:13pm, and the eclipse ends at 4:25pm. Eclipse viewing glasses will be available at the teen desk starting Monday, April 1st and will be available the day of the eclipse at the main circulation desk.
While here, you can view the eclipse with eclipse glasses or check it out with our telescope (don't worry, it'll have a solar filter!). We will also have activities throughout for all ages to learn about and enjoy the eclipse.
We are definitely hoping for clear skies, but if the clouds get in the way, no worries! We will have the NASA livestream of the eclipse in two indoor areas: the periodical room on the first floor (by the front doors) and the lower level teen area/makerspace.
If you have any questions, please contact Nisa Kesseler (NASA partner eclipse ambassador and Teen Librarian) at 231-758-3113 or nkesseler@petoskeylibrary.org.
