The guide includes three tactile graphics thermoformed on Braillon paper: an illustration of the alignment of the Sun with the Moon and Earth during the path of totality, an illustration of four visual aspects of the sun and moon during the event, and a map of the U.S. with the path of totality marked. Book includes braille and large print captions, and a QR code that links to the accessible online guide in both English and Spanish.
