Solar Wind Sherpas
Welcome to the Solar Wind Sherpas official website.
We are an international team of scientists, engineers, and storytellers who travel the world to observe total solar eclipses. Each expedition is a unique opportunity to study the Sun’s corona, uncover the secrets of the solar wind, and share the wonder of these rare celestial events. Our mission blends cutting-edge science with the spirit of exploration — bringing the eclipse experience to communities, researchers, and skywatchers everywhere.
In this section, you’ll find information about the Solar Wind Sherpas team and its founder, Dr. Shadia R. Habbal. Learn how the group came together, how it has evolved over the years, and what drives our mission to explore the Sun through total solar eclipse expeditions.
