While we’re over here cooking up more eclipse puns, you should be plotting, scheming, and making your way to an eclipse party! 🥳

Anyone in the Buckeye State can catch the April 8th solar eclipse in all its glory between 3:08 p.m. and 3:19 p.m., and the partial solar eclipse starts at 1:59 p.m. 😎

 

Here’s Five Fast Facts on where to watch the upcoming solar eclipse:

They’re having quite the Solar-Bration, complete with a sweet pair of viewing glasses. You’ll also pick up some knowledge on wildlife research. Don’t climb the giraffes to get a better look.
