The solar eclipse will be crossing over America this upcoming Monday, April 8th!
The Physics and Astronomy Department at UNCA and the Astronomy Club of Asheville are holding a viewing for the solar eclipse on UNC Asheville’s campus in Parking Lot 34 (where the weekly farmers market is held). Here in Asheville it will be a partial solar eclipse with a maximum of 87% coverage around 3pm.
