The upcoming solar eclipse in Arizona is generating a lot of excitement among residents, but experts are urging people to take necessary precautions to safeguard their vision. One of the most important recommendations is to use specialized sunglasses to view the event safely. According to Hani Abdulle from the Arizona Science Center, these glasses offer a clear image of the sun and are the best option for observing the eclipse.
Apart from sunglasses, Abdulle recommends using items with small holes, such as the center of a colander, to view shapes being formed on the ground during the eclipse. These tiny holes restrict sunlight rays and create a projection that allows you to observe the event without directly looking at the sun.
For those who want to make their own solar eclipse viewer, they can follow these easy instructions: all you need is a rectangular cardboard box, white paper, scissors, a pencil, aluminum foil and tape. By following these steps, you can create your own safe viewer that will allow you to experience this incredible event in full safety.
