AMC Presents: Total Solar Eclipse

While the path of totality crosses the center of the United States, a partial eclipse will be viewable from New Hampshire. At AMC’s Highland Center we’ll have telescopes out and trained astronomers giving interpretation of the event. We’ll also be connecting with Dr. Douglas Arion as he leads an AMC Adventure Travel trip in the Western US for viewing of the total phase of the eclipse. On Monday night, we’ll continue the sky viewing with night sky observation through telescopes (weather permitting) or indoor sky viewing with our portable planetarium.
