The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is hosting a live Science Chat on Tuesday, Aug. 21 at 10:30 a.m. EDT, to mark the one-year anniversary of the historic 2017 Eclipse across America.
The event will hold a discussion on new science data and the public impact of the celestial event experienced by millions and scientists will also take a look ahead at upcoming eclipses and missions that will reveal more of our solar system's secrets. The event will be live streamed on the agency's website and Facebook Live, Twitch, Ustream, YouTube, Periscope and Twitter channels.
On Aug. 21, 2017, for the first time in 99 years, a total solar eclipse occurred across the entire continental United States. NASA and its partners provided a wealth of images and information captured before, during, and after the eclipse by spacecraft, NASA aircraft, ground-based observatories, citizen scientists, more than 50 high-altitude balloons, and astronauts aboard the International Space Station.
