What inspired you to make this project?:
We've been making kits for educators, outreach coordinators and amateur astronomers to bring the universe into the classroom, the stargazing field and into families and children for years. Presenting what we do and how to teach safe solar viewing in anticipation of the upcoming eclipse in a DIY fashion made sense for our organization.
