On Monday, April 8, 2024, North America will witness the longest total eclipse on land in over a decade. During a total eclipse, viewers will be able to see the sun’s corona, its outermost atmosphere, as it appears as a white delicate light. It is a rare sight and only visible during totality. It is important to remember that totality only lasts a few seconds to several minutes depending on your location. Once the moon continues its path, any sunlight exposure to your eyes without proper protection can be damaging. Find out how to protect your eyes during the solar eclipse below.
