I saw totality during the solar eclipse last year
Where I lived I didn't see much. I didn't have the glasses for it. I hated that.
It was amazing. It happens when the moon passes between the sun and the earth.
Yes that was a special solar eclipse.
Since it was a total eclipse, the sun was fully obscured by the moon.
Yes. I didn't dare look up at it as they advised because I did not want to hurt my eyes.
Yes, that can easily burn your eyes! They called it "The Great American Eclipse" because it passed through so much of America
Yes where I live was where it wasn't seen as good.
America has not had one like that since 1918!
