It may have been a little cloudy, but members of the Buffalo State community still found some great moments to view today’s partial solar eclipse outside of the Whitworth Ferguson Planetarium.

While the eclipse was total across parts of Greenland, Iceland, and Spain, about 16% of the Sun’s disk was covered here in Buffalo at maximum eclipse.

A partial eclipse may not have the dramatic impact of a total eclipse, but it offers an opportunity to pause and connect what we learn about our universe with an experience happening right above us.
