@NASA I put on my solar eclipse glasses today and couldn't see a thing until I looked toward the sun. ...that's why I keep seeing public service announcements to not wear the eclipse glasses while driving.

@NASA What would happen if Webb points at the sun? How quickly would it get destroyed? ^^

Protect your eyes during the eclipse! Use eclipse glasses – not sunglasses – to look at the Sun. During the brief moments when the Moon completely covers the Sun during totality, you can look without glasses. More tips:

Clavicular REVEALED a new LOOKSMAXXING method for brighter eyes through “SUNSTAREMAXXING” ☀️👁️ "This only works during like a solar eclipse, but if you look at the sun for long enough, your eyes can actually turn lighter." "That's how I got my eye color, they used to be brown... so they're gone" "When you have blue eyes, your eyes capture more light, so you can see better in the dark, but it also makes you squint more in the sun."

Tonight, a total solar eclipse will cross parts of Europe. I’m also very happy to see my project featured in Datawrapper’s Dispatch, alongside wonderful work from Reuters and The New York Times — teams whose work I’ve admired for years. It’s a real honor to be in such company. Over the past few days, I’ve made a lot of improvements to my Solar Eclipse Atlas. I’m especially grateful to Ernie Wright, a lead visualization specialist at NASA, who took the time to review the project and suggest a small but important improvement. I’ve already implemented it, making the visualization of eclipse paths more accurate. I’ve also added a new feature to the city view. You can now hover over any eclipse and see how it actually unfolded in the sky: how the Moon moved across the Sun, or how it will move during a future eclipse. So for any city, you can now simulate any solar eclipse from 2000 BCE to 3000 CE and see what it looked like from that exact place on Earth. #eclipse #sun

Solar eclipses can be exciting! But if you aren’t careful, they can harm your eyes, even permanently. Here’s how you can safely watch an eclipse 👇 ✅ Dos - Use solar eclipse glasses or a handheld solar viewer that meets the ISO 12312-2 international safety standards—at all times - Supervise kids closely - Inspect glasses or viewers for damage before use ❌ Don'ts - Using unsafe filters like sunglasses, smartphone cameras, x-rays, etc. - Removing glasses or lens at any time while viewing the eclipse - Viewing the eclipse through unfiltered cameras or telescope even with eclipse glasses Ensure safety first! If you notice any changes in your vision after viewing the eclipse, seek immediate advice from an eye care professional.

Can You Use a Floppy Disk to Watch a Solar Eclipse? No, a floppy disk is NOT a safe filter for viewing a solar eclipse. Many people recommended using one for the August 12 eclipse, so I looked into it Here’s what I found 👀
