NASA Provides Unique Views of the 2017 “Eclipse Across America”
On Monday, August 21, 2017, all of North America was treated to an eclipse of the sun, with some locations experiencing a total solar eclipse—where the sun was 100% obscured by the moon’s shadow, or umbra. In the September-October 2017 issue of The Earth Observer, we briefly summarize NASA Television’s Eclipse Across America coverage—a four-hour broadcast that took place on the day of the eclipse from 12:00 to 4:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time (EDT). Throughout the summary are discussions of some of the science activities that were conducted, as well as several "Perspectives from the Path" that describe personal anecdotes from eyewitnesses who had been asked to describe their respective eclipse experiences for this article.
