American Astronomical Society presents Two Solar Eclipses in Albuquerque. All of Albuquerque and parts of several Native American pueblos and reservations lie in the path of an annular (“ring”) solar eclipse on October 14, 2023, which falls during the International Balloon Fiesta. All of New Mexico will have a second, partial solar eclipse six months later, on April 8, 2024. Reflecting the region’s wonderful diversity and rich history of Sun-watching, this presentation, featuring speakers from the American Astronomical Society and NASA’s PUNCH mission, will prepare you for these exciting cosmic events while sharing scientific, cultural, and historical perspectives on solar eclipses.
