Dr. Kent Montgomery, director of the Texas A&M-Commerce Planetarium, recently took a group of astronomy students to Great Britain, where among other sites, they visited the Royal Observatory and viewed an exhibition of the best astronomy photos of 2017.  With the total solar eclipse coming up August 21, Dr. Montgomery says you can get free eclipse viewing glasses at the Planetarium's regularly scheduled Friday night programs.
