There is no phase of an annular or partial eclipse that is safe to view with the naked eye. Here’s why — and what to wear to stay safe.
On Saturday, an annular solar eclipse will create a scintillating “ring of fire” in the skies across the Americas. Astronomers are encouraging everyone within the 125-mile-wide eclipse path stretching over North, Central and South America to enjoy this rare sight for the last time until 2046 — but only if they can do so safely. And sunglasses won’t be enough to protect your eyes for this celestial event. The “ring of fire” nickname comes from the appearance of annular solar eclipses.
For safe manufacturers and resellers of eclipse glasses and filters for optical devices, including cameras and smartphones, check out the list curated by the American Astronomical Society. Put on your eclipse glasses before looking up and remember to turn away from the sun before you remove them again. Always keep an eye on any children wearing eclipse glasses to make sure they don’t remove them while looking at the sun.
