The Kopernik Observatory & Science Center, a public observatory in Vestal, New York, will begin a livestream at 8:30 p.m. EDT on May 15, 2022.

As seen from the observatory’s site the Moon will be 12.5º above the eastern horizon, which means the entire event will be visible and broadcast. Kopernik astronomer Jeremy Cartie will be available throughout the stream to chat and answer questions.
