Flatiron Nomad hosts an afternoon full of science and family-friendly activities. Participate in a family-friendly activity led by the National Museum of Mathematics: can a pea eclipse a beachball, or a grain of sand eclipse the sun? Experiment with eclipsing spheres of different sizes!

Scientists and staff from the Simons Foundation in the Flatiron North Plaza help families safely take a closer look at the sun before it is eclipsed by the moon and solar telescopes are set up to look through.

Innovative LightSound devices convert the variation of light intensity during the solar eclipse into sound and offer a more accessible experience for individuals who are blind or low-vision.
