The Physics Department is inviting students to catch the last solar eclipse of the year today at noon Physics lecturer William Pezzaglia, along with his students, are holding the event with the goal of helping students learn more and be curious about science and astronomy.

Their group will meet behind the Science buildings and view the eclipse through filtered telescopes and pinhole cameras to protect their eyes from the sun.

According to the event organizer Taichi Inaki, the actual eclipse starts between 1:30 to 2 p.m. and will be at peak visibility between 3 to 3:30 p.m. Inaki said they plan to set up the telescopes by 11 a.m. and will be there until the eclipse fades away by 4:30 p.m.
“Most importantly, I should mention all of this is weather permitting,” said Inaki.
