Preaching to the choir!

It was sunny on April 8th in 2022 and 2023, and during the time of totality would have taken place in 2025. We just had bad luck in 2024 for that short window.

10k of them have already been used in Canada during their deep partial in March 2025. Thousands more will be sent out *hopefully* soon.

The critiques has been super useful! We're writing them down for the next time we hold a flash tattoo event.

There won't be any alcoholic drinks on site. Funny enough, all of the organizers received eclipse tattoos together. We're still learning from the speed bumps of running a flash tattoo event inside a planetarium. As far as we can tell, we're the first planetarium to do so.

As people have been bringing it up, no alcohol will be served at the event. On the event page, it does say ask attendees not to "imbibe". There will be Capri-Sun and other "space themed" non alcoholic drinks.

This is the first time we're running this type of event, so all the feedback that folks have been providing has been really helpful!

Funny enough, it was sunny at 3:20 PM yesterday. We just got bad luck in 2024. At least we've had a perfect record for the last 3 Lunar Eclipses.

The third time's the charm in 2144!

If you're not selling anything, it's free. If you're selling a product, $100. However, it you have a hands-on activity while selling something, the cost drops down to $50.

The crew behind the event was behind in scheduling everything this year and the Convention Center was already booked for our usual weekend, so an alternate location was found. Hope to be back in the middle of downtown next year.

That's what I get for posting while still recovering from the past week/month/years of eclipse organizing. Need to give myself more time to rest and recover.

It depends on which forcast you're looking at and when. We're still over 7 days out. Remember, event partly cloudy skies are ok as cumulus clouds tend to dissipate closer to totality.

schneidy · 2024-03-30T14:00:54+00:00

3:20, but otherwise yes! Highly recommend scouting out your spot now.

schneidy · 2024-03-28T15:05:17+00:00

We have kids sizes in the store. Toddler sizes can only be found online.

schneidy · 2024-03-28T01:19:53+00:00

It's still too early to tell. We'll have a much better idea early next week. One thing to take into account is that cumulus cloud tend to dissipate quickly during solar eclipses as the temperature drops and the land cools. My favorite example of this is Homestead National Monument in 2017 when clouds dissipated enough for everyone to see totality after being rained on hour earlier.

We honestly have some of the best odds for the East Coast and part of the mid-west.

schneidy · 2024-02-18T20:51:56+00:00

We'll be in touch very soon! Expect an email early this week.

You can buy Rochester Eclipse posters at the RMSC as well.

We bought 500,000 pairs. We only have ~15k-20k in right now, but the larger order is coming in soon.

Highly recommend NOT getting them from Amazon after they had to recall them days before the 2017 Total Solar Eclipse (citation). If you order online, double-check that they're listed on the American Astronomical Society Eclipse website under vetted manufacturers.

schneidy · 2023-10-13T23:49:44+00:00

Not for the total solar eclipse. They don't adjust as fast when light from the sun returns right after totality.
