A group of high school students from Bergen County traveled to the path of totality of the eclipse on April 8th, 2024, as part of a program developed by our colleagues at Illinois Space Grant Consortium. In addition to observing the total eclipse, the New Jersey students were interviewed by college students from New York State.
On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will cross North America, passing over Mexico, United States, and Canada.
This past month six undergraduates sponsored by The New Jersey Space Grant Consortium achieved their Level 1 rocketry certification from the National Association of Rocketry and Tripoli Rocketry Association. In an extraordinary feat of dedication and passion, the following students, Alex Bryan-Jones, Chris Castro, John Kellaher, Keith Kondapi, Ethan Oliva, and Ravi Patel have successfully achieved their certification following a successful flight and recovery of their own personally built high-power rockets.
