In partnership with NCAR 2025 Explorer Series, we are pleased to be able to host a special film screening and discussion: Gathered in Darkness – 2024 total solar eclipse documentary screening. While total solar eclipses can evoke feelings of awe and wonder, they also present a unique opportunity for communities to engage in scientific inquiry. In this Explorer Series special event, join us in The Canyons Center at Frasier for a film screening of Gathered in Darkness, a documentary produced about the Citizen CATE 2024 mission, which united communities across the United States to capture over 47,000 images of the corona, our Sun’s wispy outer atmosphere that’s normally hidden. Afterwards, hear from the lead scientists and filmmaker about documenting a large-scale community science project, and get a sneak peek at some of the data and how it can help us better understand solar storms, solar magnetism, and their impact on us here on Earth.
