Brian Mernoff, manager of the CommLab in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics, shares his excitement at having the opportunity to view the solar eclipse with Boston Globe reporter John Hilliard. “A total solar eclipse is a very different way to see the sun and the moon,” Mernoff notes. “You see a black disk in the sky, with all these wispy lines that are coming off the sun, and getting thrown off the edges. It’s just an incredible sight.”
