#InternationalSUNday is this Sunday, June 24! Stop by between 1-4pm for some #solarobserving located at #BethesdaFountain in #CentralPark! Free admission, all ages welcome. . According to @philplait, International SUNday is "an informal holiday to celebrate the nearest star in the Universe." International SUNday was introduced and made popular through the efforts of the Charlie Bates Solar Astronomy Project (#CBSAP) and continues its legacy through public efforts and initiatives. . Not in the area? That’s fine! This is a global event with various clubs, organizations, and individuals celebrating! To locate an event closest to you, head to the SOLARACTIVITY group on Facebook, or @nightskynetwork’s website for listings! (📷 credit: @centralparknyc)
