Eclipse watchers are warned not to look at the sun at any time without eye protection or risk permanent eye damage. Use certified solar viewing glasses or eclipse glasses and avoid buying on Amazon or other third-party sites. Or use the old standby from elementary school, a pinhole camera projected on a surface.
