NASA GLOBE Observer’s Weekly Roundup: 3-9 September 2017

And we're back. So many fun events and moments to remember from #Eclipse2017. Plus, do you have plans for the long weekend?  This and more in this week's edition of the roundup.

1. THANK YOU: GLOBE Observer team members (including myself) were sent all over the nation -- we were pleased to meet and talk with you all. Thank you for your interest and dedication to citizen science. 

We also want to thank all of our citizen scientists who contributed over 100,000 (and still counting) measurements during the solar eclipse on 21 August. Check out the link below for fun visualization of all of the measurements with the shadow of the eclipse inserted.

2. PLANS: It's Labor Day weekend! Have any citizen science plans while enjoying time with friends and family out of doors? How about taking some cloud measurements or mapping mosquito habitats? Summer may be winding down, but mosquito season is still going strong. And mosquito bites are anything but fun. How do you keep #mosquitoes from biting you and possibly transmitting dangerous diseases? You can find out some of the research-based ways to prevent and control mosquitoes in the first link below.
