Upcoming Exhibition: In the Path of Totality
October 5 - December 13, 2024 Opening Reception: October 4, 4:00-6:00 pm
October 2024
Plymouth State University students and faculty joined teams from 75 participat- ing institutions as part of the NASA Nationwide Eclipse Ballooning Project. The goal of this NASA grant was to broaden engagement of stu- dents in STEM activities through a NASA mission-like adventure in data acquisition and analysis through scientific ballooning during the October
14, 2023 annular and April 8, 2024 total solar eclipses. Our two student teams were stra- tegically comprised of a range of majors: meteorology, cli- mate studies, art, and political science. Through these diverse majors, students were exposed to STEM + Art and added to the project in unique and cre- ative ways. In addition to the 30-hour ballooning campaign, students focused on capturing
the eclipse visually, through photography, video, and art. After many hours of learning and practice, the teams trav- eled to Moriarty, New Mexico for the annular eclipse and Pittsburg, New Hampshire for the total eclipse. This ex- hibition brings together the scientific and artistic research outcomes of the students and faculty involved in the proj- ect.
