LECTURE: Eclipses, Auroras and Comets, Oh My!

LECTURE: Eclipses, Auroras and Comets, Oh My!

by Dwight Dulsky

2024 was an incredible year featuring three major astronomical events for astronomers. These are jaw dropping sights that don’t happen that often, and to have these bucket list items appear right in our backyards is very rare. Our astronomers are constantly watching the skies and recording these special happenings year-round. We will revisit these three unique events and tell the backstory of how they occur and what we do to capture them in stunning detail. While most people sleep, the Universe unfolds a beautiful tableau during the night.

Presenter: For the past 20 years, Dwight Dulsky of the Bucks-Mont Astronomical Association has worked on school and community outreach programming among numerous regional organizations teaching children and adults about the wonders of the night sky. Most recently, with the Astronomical Society of the Pacific providing Solar Eclipse safety information in 2024.
