The 2023 annular eclipse event was a great success.

See video highlights

Albuquerque will have its second solar eclipse event in six months with a
partial eclipse occurring on Monday, April 8, 2024. Albuquerque will see 78%
coverage for this event.

The Department of Physics and Astronomy will be giving away free eclipse viewers
in the main lobby of the PAIS building during the following dates and times:



Dates Days Times March 25-29 Monday - Friday 12-1 pm everyday, 10-11 am
(Thursday only), and 2-3 pm (WF Only) April 1-5 Monday - Friday 10-11 am, 12-1
pm and 2-3 pm


*Times subject to change



The number of glasses per person will be limited, and the giveaway will continue
until supplies are gone. Visitor parking on campus is available in the Cornell
Parking Structure for $1.75/half hour. Please do not park along Redondo Drive
near PAÍS or in reserved parking spaces to pick up glasses.

For inquiries, please email observatory@unm.edu.

Donations to support planning for a new UNM Campus Observatory are encouraged
and appreciated.

Why do you need special glasses to view the sun?

You can damage your eyes by simply looking up at a solar eclipse. You must wear
special eclipse glasses to look at a solar eclipse. The American Optometric
Association suggests using a handheld solar viewer, special-purpose solar
filters, or other ISO-certified filters if you plan to view a solar eclipse for
even a short period of time.
