Planet 在线博彩: Angela Speck previews upcoming total solar eclipse

Episode 1

Imagine enjoying the sunshine one minute and a full moon night the next. Imagine a day when the birds stop chirping and bees stop buzzing. Those are the kinds of scenarios that people in San Antonio and the Texas Hill Country will experience on Monday, April 8, when the moon completely aligns with the sun to create a total solar eclipse.

Join us as Angela Speck, professor and chair of the 在线博彩 Department of Physics and Astronomy, kicks off the inaugural episode of Planet 在线博彩, a special edition podcast series previewing the upcoming eclipse. Speck joins 在线博彩’s John Elizondo to discuss how to safely view the eclipse (hint, leave your welder’s mask at home) and why it’s so important to experience this once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon from the path of totality.

The 在线博彩 Office of University Strategic Communications demonstrates 在线博彩’s commitment to research, career readiness and economic development through compelling, multimedia storytelling. Its Planet 在线博彩 podcast is one of several projects in the Eclipse 2024 initiative, which will include a 在线博彩 Today news series about the impact of the eclipse and a weekly op-ed series featuring faculty experts running in the San Antonio Express-News leading up to the April 8 event. Both series will run on Mondays. Check out Sombrilla Magazine to learn more about how 在线博彩 has emerged at the forefront of illuminating projects solving the grand challenges of space exploration.
