The OSSM community observed the 2024 Solar Eclipse on Monday, April 8. The temperature dropped and the sky darkened even though OKC is not in the path of totality.
The eclipse brought home to students that science is a real-word phenomenon.
” I think it is fair to say it brought home to students that there is much more to science than just the textbook and lecture,” said William Underwood, Ph.D., physics professor. “Science is about the real world, the real universe, not just a bunch of facts and equations.”
