On today’s show, we drop by the Gemini Observatory on York Street in Sackville to speak with astronomer Catherine Lovekin about the upcoming total solar eclipse that will be visible all over New Brunswick on April 8. Lovekin says that weather depending, the observatory will be open to the public during the eclipse. There could be big turnout, because the Anglophone East School District has informed parents that school kids will be dismissed early on April 8, in time for the eclipse.
Plus in briefs, Warktimes.com reports that work has started to replace an aboiteau that drains into the Tantramar River, and the RCMP share statistics from a province-wide traffic operation last week.
