What else can I help you with?
Does a moon completely cover the sun in a total solar eclipse?
Yes, in a total eclipse the Moon does cover the Sun completely. As the Earth, Moon and Sun are constantly moving, the eclipse doesn't last long. It is important that you don't look directly at the eclipse with the naked eye - or your sight could be damaged.
How can you look at an eclipse without hurting your eyes?
You do NOT directly look at a partial eclipse. For a total eclipse you can look directly at the eclipse, during totality. Once the 'diamond ring' effect is seen you must look away. To observe an elcipse, total ort partial , use a pin-hole camera. A pin-hole camera is two pieces of white card , one with a pin-hole in it. With you back to the sun/eclipse, hold the two cards towards the Sun/Eclipse, with the pin-hole card nearest the Sun/Eclipse. The pin-hole card should project the light on to the second card, so you can see the total/partial eclipse on the second card. It is possible to use welders visor glass, but not recommended. Astronomers use special darkened lenses in order to have direct photographs of the Sun/Eclipse. As mentioned above do NOT look directly at the Sun/Eclipse. You will 'burn' yours eyes out. !!!!!! Blind yourself.!!!!!
