It’s solar eclipse day! Here in New Jersey we’ll only see a partial eclipse, but it’s still an occasion worth noting. As Hayden Planetarium Director and super-cool celebrity astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson has pointed out, “Perhaps a hundred million people will see it—that’s a great thing.” We can confirm that lots of people are anticipating this event: our inboxes have been flooded with solar-system-related product intros in recent weeks.
