Solar System and Space
Our eyes are on the skies
Did you know that there will be a total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024?
Burlington and the surrounding area will be in the “path of totality” for the April eclipse. We are delighted to offer Space science programs in partnership with South Burlington resident, Bridget Kimsey, who is a NASA Solar System Ambassador. Check back often for information about library programs about space, our solar system and the eclipses.
Viewing the Eclipse
You should never look at the sun directly without equipment that's specifically designed for looking at the sun.
