think you have added some very relevant topics to flesh out
what we can share with the public. One other topic I’d like
to see called out is “sun safety”—how to view a solar
eclipse safely and broader topic of UV exposure and skin/eye
safety. I have found people are always interested in the
personal connections and science and it is very easy to make
the sun personal through connections to their very own
health.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
