Oneonta Pauses

To View Eclipse

Above, over 250 people gathered on the lawn of the Huntington Memorial library this afternoon for an Eclipse viewing party. Protective eyeware sold out everywhere, but the crowd shared 30+ pairs provided by the library. In addition Prof. Kevin Shultz and Dr. Lawrence Nienart were on hand with telescopes and projectors so people could view the event on a large scale. Still others opted for the DIY option and came with their own home made pinhole cameras. At right, Hannah Ransford, Delhi, looks through the telescope that was covered with aluminized mylar to safely view the eclipse. (Ian Austin/AllOTSEGO.com)
