The Bulletin of the American Astronomical Society (BAAS) has published a new special issue entitled, "Celebrating the Wonder of Science in the Shadow."
This special issue is the first in a series intended to document how professional scientists, educational outreach professionals, community scientists, teachers, students, amateur astronomers, artists, park rangers, other professionals, and individuals of all ages provide eclipse-related outreach, science, viewing experiences, demonstrations and observations, community science experiments, and other related experiences.
The publication is available online and is free to read and articles are free to download:

One of the articles in the publication highlights the public engagement activities of NISE Network partners throughout the United States during the solar eclipses in 2017 and 2023, as well as plans for 2024.
Sincere thanks to NISE Network partners across the country for all their work preparing their communities and making these solar eclipse memorable occasions!
