The sun and moon rise every day or night. We take it for granted. But should we be complacent about our closest star and Earth’s only satellite planet? Let’s learn from Planetarium Director Dave Ludwikoski about the lunar eclipse and blood moon occurring in March and the solar superstorms predicted for 2025. Information will be shared in a discussion format for the eclipse, followed by a presentation of the film, Solar Superstorms. Narrated by Benedict Cumberbatch, the film features one of the most intensive efforts ever made to visualize the sun’s inner workings, including a series of groundbreaking scientific visualizations computed on the giant supercomputing initiative, Blue Waters, based at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications, University of Illinois.After the presentation, we will move outside with an opportunity to view our night sky using a telescope, weather permitting.
