Where will ILR take you this spring?

Where will YOU be on April 8?On Monday, April 8, people within a 124-mile-wide band in Ohio will have a front-row seat to experience a total solar eclipse, a rare and spectacular event. Only 21 total solar eclipses have crossed the lower 48 states in the entire existence of the United States. The last total solar eclipse visible in Ohio was in 1806. The next total solar eclipse in Ohio will be in the year 2099. Learn more at eclipse.ohio.gov.
Due to the interest in witnessing this rare event and in anticipation of the traffic on our roads, ILR will be postponing all of its classes on Monday, April 8 (makeups will be held).
To educate and prepare ourselves for this event, ILR will be offering two lectures:
- Special Event hybrid lecture, "The Imminent Solar Eclipse," on Thursday, April 4, from 4:00-5:15pm, both online and in person at the Richard and Carole Cocks Art Museum, Oxford. Jerry Riesenberg, an amateur astronomer for more than 45 years, and Stephen Alexander, Associate Professor, Miami University Department of Physics, look forward to enlightening you about the eclipse ahead. This free event is open to members and non-members, but you must register to secure your seat. ILR registration will open on March 4.
- In addition to the above event, the Wednesday Midday Lecture Series in West Chester will feature a lecture on April 3 titled "Here Comes the Solar Eclipse." The lecture will be delivered by Terry Endres, who has over 25 years of experience teaching astronomy. This in-person series is available to members and included in our spring membership. LR registration will open on March 4.
Watch parties will be occurring throughout the area on April 8, including at the Richard and Carole Cocks Art Museum. For that and other local events, see this Journal News article.
