Eclipse@Neill Public Library

Thanks to Pullman city councilor Nathan Weller, Neill Public Library had NASA certified eclipse glasses to give away!  The library took a waitlist for glasses, and after filling the waitlist of nearly 250 pairs packaged in a safety information packet, there were over 150 remaining glasses to be distributed on a first come, first served basis beginning at 1pm today. A long line formed shortly after the library opened at noon, and when distribution began at 1, it took only 14 minutes for the glasses to dissappear.






Want to watch the eclipse from indoors?  Join us August 21 at 9am in the Hecht meeting room for live streaming of the eclipse from the NASA website!  We’ll project video feed onto a big screen for maximum viewing pleasure.  This show will cover the path of totality the eclipse will take from Oregon to South Carolina. The program will feature views from NASA research aircraft, high-altitude balloons, satellites and specially-modified telescopes. It also will include live reports from Charleston, as well as from Salem, Oregon; Idaho Falls, Idaho; Beatrice, Nebraska; Jefferson City, Missouri; Carbondale, Illinois; Hopkinsville, Kentucky; and Clarksville, Tennessee.
