"On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will cross North America, passing over Mexico, the United States, and Canada. A total solar eclipse happens when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth, completely blocking the face of the Sun. The sky will darken as if it were dawn or dusk." (via NASA)
Check out STOM's curated resources to prepare for and experience the eclipse.

"Just like signing days for athletes, Missouri STEM Signing Day celebrates Missouri high school seniors as they make their commitments to study a STEM field at Missouri colleges and universities. This program recognizes outstanding Missouri high school students from across the state who are inspired by science, technology, engineering and math and are dedicated to pursuing a STEM career pathway in college and beyond.
A minimum of 25 students will receive a $1,000 scholarship to go towards their college costs. Students will sign a letter of intent to pursue a STEM degree program at a Missouri post-secondary institution."
