A group of researchers, entrepreneurs, and allies advancing space technologies, from near-term applications to long-term exploration.

Creon Levit | Eclipse Wisdom
This talk is about solar eclipses: their history, their impact on culture, and their impact on science. We will discuss some relevant celestial mechanics: why eclipses happen when they happen, where they happen, and how they are predicted. We will review some historically notable total solar eclipses, including the longest for about 3000 years which Creon saw in Africa as a young boy. We will preview a few upcoming eclipses and discuss other eclipse types and eclipses on other planets.

Creon has seen nine total solar eclipses. So far.
