And I know people are going to look up at it and a go blind. Adequate protection consists of one of the following: a number 14 welder's glass shield double-folded fully exposed black and white photographic film negative containing silver purpose designed solar astronomical filters coated with silver, chromium, or aluminium aluminised mylar The eclipse may be safely viewed indirectly by projecting the sun's image through a pinhole pierced in a piece of cardboard The following are NOT safe to use to view the eclipse:colour photographic film non-silver containing black and white film medical x-ray films smoked glass photographic neutral density filters polarizing filters solar filters sold with cheap telescopes are unreliable and also not recommended Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookiegirl Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 Look Up: Total Lunar Eclipse To Shine Thursday Posted: May 14, 2003 11:57 AM ESTIf the weather cooperates, a total lunar eclipse will be seen across North America late Thursday, the first visible in the United States in three years, and just before dawn Friday in western Europe and western and southern Africa. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth casts its shadow on the full moon, blocking the sunlight that otherwise reflects off the moon's surface. Unlike solar eclipses, lunar eclipses are safe to view with the naked eye. In North America, the moon will remain totally eclipsed for 53 minutes, and should turn substantially darker and reddish in color. The total eclipse will start at 8:13 PDT in Los Angeles, 11:13 p.m. EDT in New York. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'll be safe from going blind from looking up at the big shadow on the moon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
