In this article, assistant teaching professor Baris Altunkaynak and professor of the practice Oleg Batishchev describe how they used a compact radio telescope to observe and live stream a 2024 solar eclipse. “The 2.5-hour solar eclipse gave plenty of time for us to engage and motivate students to learn more about astrophysics and radio astronomy,” they write. “Many Northeastern students who watched our live stream were curious about the difference between the optical and radio observations. The students were quite enthusiastic about the real-time radio tracking of the eclipse, so we plan to continue live streaming radio-telescope observations in the future.”
