Aurorae, Eclipses, and Comets, Oh My!
We are pleased to announce the Autumn 2024 FOSAA Event for Sunday, October 27, at 1 pm, in McPherson 1000. The talks will focus on solar activity and its connection to the Earth. After the talks, we will feature chats with astronomers as usual, have our solar telescope out, you can help make a comet, and we will play Solar Superstorms in the Arne Slettebak Planetarium for those who have not seen it before.
More information will be coming soon.
