Abeg no fex..how long is this eclipse gonna last? Because 2mao is my Birthday n i nid 2 go out n have fun.

Na by force to look? If you know look nko wetin go happen?

Dynasty92: Na wa o..is it d@ risky?

think of it this way...if u put on a tap and use a finger to block some part of the tap opening u wud notice that there will be a faster and more violent gush of water from the little opening left...
the sun is the tap and the moon is your finger, the little crescent formed is d small opening, pls try to avoid looking directly at the sun during the eclipse...in fact never look at the sun directly for any reason anytime of the year...cos u'll not know your eyes are damaged till its too late

Ok everywhere good

You're on point joor, 2006 own I look am well well but I looked at it as if am looking through the tiniest hole .........but I saw the thing live and clear.

YOU DON'T NEED TO LOOK DIRECTLY TO THE SKY, JUST PLACE A LARGE BOWL OF WATER DIRECTLY PROPORTIONATE TO THE SKY AND AND LOOK STRAIGHT INTO THE WATER WITH YOUR NAKED EYES , IS NOT GONNA DO YOU ANY HARM JUST WATCH THE MOON AND THE SUN FIGHTING OVER ONE WAY, NAWA O SO THERE IS ONE WAY ON AIRSPACE

yorex2011: It is never safe to look directly at the Sun except during a total eclipse; a partial or annular eclipse, even when the Sun is mostly covered, can still cause permanent eye damage, even though you might not feel any discomfort.
There is no pain when the retina is being burned, and the resulting visual symptoms do not occur until at least several hours after the injury has occurred - by which time it is far too late.
Looking at the Sun through any kind of optical aid (binoculars, a telescope, or even a camera's viewfinder) is extremely dangerous, and can cause permanent blindness.

Sunglasses do not provide anything like adequate protection, as they do not block the wavelengths of light which are likely to damage your eyes, or reduce the intensity of the visible light sufficiently.

Viewing the Sun indirectly, by projecting its image onto a screen, is far safer. You can make a projector with a simple pinhole. However, never look through the projector -- only look at the image on the screen.
note that even the bucket of water reflection ish is still not safe

Another easy way is to crisscross your fingers waffle style to the sunlight, which will project the
partial eclipse on the ground in front of you, If you're near a tree, look underneath the sun-dappled canopy of leaves, and you might be able to see the projections of countless mini-eclipses on the ground.
You can also get a piece of cardboard, punch hole in it with a nail, and then angle the cardboard to project the sun's light on another piece of cardboard. "You'll see a projected image … when the sun goes into eclipse, you'll see a crescent The smaller the hole, the sharper image you can get.
