All eyes will turn to the skies on April 8 for the solar eclipse. During this amazing event it will be important to practice proper eye safety. Here's how.
As the moon passes in front of the sun on Monday, it's important to be prepared to view the rare celestial spectacle safely.
If you already have solar viewers that aren't on the list, don't panic. The AAS Solar Eclipse Task Force says it's simply“What some people are calling ‘fake’ eclipse glasses appear to be products being promoted with misleading claims, printed with information copied from other manufacturers’ viewers, or otherwise suspicious,” said Rick Fienberg, project manager of the task force. “But that doesn’t mean they’re dangerous.
The group also noted that when searching on online marketplaces like Amazon, Etsy, eBay or Temu, it does not recommend automatically buying from the seller offering the lowest price. Buyers should do their research and identify the seller and check to see if it's a trusted source before buying any solar viewer on an online retail marketplace.
Even a slight direct glance at the sun could cause damage, so it's important to remember not to look at it directly without safe eyewear — even if partially covered by the moon.
