Eclipse: The Sun Revealed

Loading Events

 

Get ready for the next Great American Eclipse!

On April 8, 2024, the Moon will cast its shadow on the Earth, tracing a narrow path across North America. If you stand in just the right place you will see the Moon cover up the Sun in a total solar eclipse!

Unlike the 2017 eclipse, Nashville will not be in the path of totality: we will see 95% of the Sun covered by the Moon. That's a lot, but without totality you'll miss the rare view of the Sun's outer atmosphere, the corona.

Don't miss the incredible experience! Learn how to safely observe eclipses, why they happen, and how the study of eclipses has advanced science.

April 8, 2024: where will you be?

Eclipse: The Sun Revealed is an original production of the Sudekum Planetarium.

Captions are available for Eclipse: The Sun Revealed—ask a team member as you enter the planetarium. Learn about accessibility at ASC
