San Diego will get to experience a partial solar eclipse on Oct. 14, 2023 -- the last annular solar eclipse viewable from the region for several decades -- and those who want to experience the phenomenon will need to prepare.
NASA says it is never safe to look at the sun -- even with a telescope or through a camera lens. And, because this year's eclipse is annular -- meaning the moon does not completely cover the sun -- you will need to view the event with safety glasses or a special tool that prevents the user from looking directly at the sun.You can purchase safe solar viewing glasses online but time is of the essence.
NBC 7 Meteorologist Sheena Parveen has details on how to catch the annular solar eclipse in San Diego.If you can't get your hands on safety glasses, create your own pinhole projector, which has a small hole opening to project the sun onto a nearby surface. Without looking at the sun, you'll be able to view the eclipse shadow as a projection. You can even use a strainer or your hands.As a last resort, you could purchase solar eclipse glasses but make sure they are ISO-compliant.
