LOVE OF SUNSHINE

If this month's blood moon wasn't enough eclipse for you, don't worry. Tonight (Thursday, Oct. 23) a solar eclipse is coming, and you won't need to rise in the weehours of the morning to see it.

The partial solar eclipse is set to start around 5:50 p.m. Eastern, though you should check NASA's chart for the best viewing times in your area. Skywatchers will see the sun dim to a small sliver in the sky as the moon passes in front of it.

Because you never listened to your parents, here's a reminder: don't stare directly at the sun, especially during an eclipse! However, you can see the eclipse without burning out your retinas. If you insist on staring directly at the sun, the Bad Astronomy blogger Phil Plait recommends getting some eclipse shades, which may be available at your local hobby shop, museum, or planetarium. Filters made of the same material are available for telescopes, binoculars, and cameras, though in all cases it's best to limit your exposure to the sun. Do notuse a regular pair of sunglasses for the event.

You can also try the eclipse-viewing method many of us learned in grade school: Punch a quarter-inch hole in a piece of paper or index card, and use it as a pinhole camera to project the eclipse onto a piece of paper below. This way you can see all the action as the moon crosses over the sun without hurting yourself. If you're feeling industrious, the Exploratorium has posted instructions for a more complicated pinhole method.
