Tour the Rochester Museum and Science Center on Thursday, September 15th at 4:30 pm.

On April 8, 2024, Rochester, New York will experience a total solar eclipse. Our region sits directly in the path of totality and will experience 3 minutes and 38 seconds of complete totality!

Based on observations from the 2017 eclipse, conservative estimates expect Rochester to welcome at least 375,000 visitors to the area for the eclipse in addition to the 1.1 million residents across the Greater Rochester Region.

Since 2019, the RMSC has been co-leading a regional Eclipse Task Force with local partners to ensure that the entire region can meet the incredible demand and opportunities associated with this once-in-a-lifetime event. The task force has grown to over 200 members representing every sector, including restaurants, parks, universities, museums, music venues, airports, and more, creating a knowledgeable community that can offer rich experiences for all who come.

Join the Rochester Rotary B2B Committee at the RMSC Planetarium on September 15th, 2022 at 4:30 PM to learn more about the upcoming eclipse, the regional efforts, what the RMSC is planning, and how you can get involved at the upcoming meeting from Hillary Olsen, the CEO & President of the RMSC, and Dan Schneiderman, the RMSC Eclipse Partnership Coordinator.
