This event is one of many eclipse multi-events happening around the country.
On Monday, August 21, 2017 (two days after the APE Mega Event), all of North America will be treated to an eclipse of the sun. Anyone within the path of totality can see one of nature's most awe inspiring sights - a total solar eclipse. This path, where the moon will completely cover the sun and the sun's tenuous atmosphere - the corona - can be seen, will stretch from Salem, Oregon to Charleston, South Carolina. Observers outside this path will still see a partial solar eclipse where the moon covers part of the sun's disk.
Here in Spokane we are just out of the path of totality, but we'll still get quite a show! Come out to Mission Park anytime between 9am and 11:45am, earn a smilie, get your SOS Passport Event Space stamped, and mix and mingle with geocachers that like looking up.
We're planning to have some special glasses or other eclipse viewing things. See you there!
