For over 2 years I've been leading the outreach and education efforts at Queen's University in preparing for the solar eclipse in April 2024. I was kept inside during a solar eclipse in 1979 to keep our school safe - and as a space-fascinated 12-year-old I was devastated. At Queen's we've been working to help the community safely see the eclipse, but also using it as a springboard for deeper understanding and inspiration for learning about astronomy and science for the whole community.
