On April 8, Chester, SC will experience a rare solar eclipse where the moon partially blocks the sun's light. While this is an exciting event, it's important to remember to protect our eyes during the eclipse. Looking directly at the sun without proper eye protection can cause serious damage to our vision. To safely enjoy the eclipse, use special solar eclipse glasses or create a pinhole projector to indirectly view the phenomenon. Remember, safety always comes first when observing the wonders of nature! Below are some links to more information.
