Charlie Bates Solar Astronomy Project - Eclipse Glasses

Founded in 2008 by Stephen Ramsden, the Charlie Bates Solar Astronomy Project is the world’s largest astronomy outreach program. When it began in Atlanta, GA, Stephen never thought that an organization he started in memory of his friend and fellow air traffic controller and veteran would reach over 250,000 people each year. The Charlie Bates Solar Astronomy Project attends hundreds of events in over 20 countries worldwide (and counting) to bring the magic of space to students and the public through observatory quality solar telescopes.
