Today’s eclipse is only partial where I am, but it’s “only” annular even for the folks that see the total eclipse. A total eclipse, however, is worth seeing So go watch it. But WATCH SAFELY! If you don’t have proper eclipse glasses, or a solar filter (that says it’s safe for use in viewing the sun directly) then use a pinhole in a sheet of paper to project the image onto another sheet of paper or other white surface. I won’t put this in bold letters, but if you view the sun through a telescope without a solar filter, you WILL damage your vision instantle and permanently. So play safe, and watch the eclipse safely. And be sur to brag to me tomorrow about how great it was, just to make me jealous.. {sob}
