A lunar eclipse will be visible for people in Arkansas and Oklahoma on Tuesday, Sept. 17, 2024. The partial eclipse will coincide with a full moon and a supermoon, which occurs when the moon is closest to Earth. Best Time To Watch The eclipse will begin at 7:41 p.m. Central Time, but it will be difficult to notice until the Earth's shadow starts to cover the top edge of the moon at 9:13 p.m. The eclipse will peak at 9:44 p.m. There could be clouds in Northwest Arkansas and the River Valley, but conditions will likely be clear enough to see the eclipse. The moon will finish exiting the full shadow at 10:16 p.m. and the partial shadow at 11:47 p.m. What Is A Lunar Eclipse? A lunar eclipse is when the moon passes into the Earth's shadow. This means that relatively little of the sun's light makes it to the moon. The sunlight that does make it to the lunar surface has passed through the Earth's atmosphere. This light is at a longer, redder wavelength, making the moon appear red. "It's as if all the world's sunrises and sunsets are projected onto the moon," according to NASA. https://www.4029tv.com/article/eclipse-supermoon-midwest-arkansas-oklahoma/62225254

Let's talk about EAST! EAST is an amazing opportunity for your child (at every Hope Public Schools campus) to learn how to solve problems in our school and community using technology and community resources! When they are not working on projects (solving problems), they are learning new technology, helping their peers, meeting with community partners, or learning basic skills such as sending an email. We are looking forward to seeing the amazing things students (3rd grade through 12th) are doing in Hope, AR!
