I remember a total eclipse when I was much younger... and those who did look when it was total, some had eye damage. If you value your vision, don’t take the chance. The sun is powerful and no one can look at it with the naked eye.. Just because it looks like it’s hidden, the rays are still coming at you.
When it is total, outside is eerily darker at midday... it’s an odd feeling. You know there is powerful things at work all the time and we take them for granted... but on Monday, it will take a shift and show you what is not the norm.
Don’t take the chance to burn your eyes...
exactly- they liken it to being outside on a cloudy day and still getting s sunburn- just because you can’t see the sun doesn’t mean it’s not still very powerful- don’t take the risk- not worth damaging your eyesight-
You must be an old booger. The last total eclipse in the US was 99 years ago.
