Total Eclipse of the Sun!
On Monday August 21, 2017, the biggest and best solar eclipse in American history is coming soon to a sky near you. On average, a total eclipse is visible from any one spot on Earth about once every 375 years. That puts fewer than 1 in 1,000 people has ever seen a total eclipse of the sun. The average speed of the moon's shadow as it races from the West Coast to the East is 1,700 mph!
Will Miss Liberty see the eclipse? She will be shaded when 72% of the sun is blocked but she's 571 miles NE of Path of Totality. Enjoy the moment safely if you are anywhere in North America.

Tell Us About Your Family's History
Ellis Island’s newest exhibit, Streets Paved With Gold, encourages visitors to reflect on their own family's experience of the trials, hopes, fears, and promises of immigration.
You are invited to write on a virtual "gold brick": goo.gl/mCE59z about those who immigrated in the past or to those immigrating to America today. Entries will be displayed in an exhibit at Ellis Island to share your stories of connection, hope, and gratitude for immigrants past and present.
Spring is an amazing time to visit Ellis Island in person: www.nps.gov/elis

Dark Sky Week
Although, Liberty Island is not open to the public at night. In late autumn and winter, the final departing ferries leave just after sunset. This magical image is the combination of fog, clouds, a gentle mist and floodlights creating a "LIBERTY SIGNAL" in sky.
Come and capture the statue in your unique photos by planning your visit soon: www.nps.gov/stli

Emancipation Day
In 1886, The Statue of Liberty was a symbol of democratic government and Enlightenment ideals as well as a celebration of the Union's victory in the American Civil War and the abolition of slavery. Edouard de Laboulaye, the French political thinker, U.S. Constitution expert, and abolitionist, who first proposed the idea of a great monument as a gift from France to the United States was a firm supporter of President Abraham Lincoln and his fight for abolition.
