Solar Eclipse report by Ethan


Solar Eclipse

Today might look like your ordinary Wednesday but no, your wrong. Until 9.18 to 10.30 am it is solar eclipse. This happens when the moon covers  the sun and it goes dark. We have been warned NOT TO LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE SUN!. You need special glasses to see the sun and they sell them at the Stardome. We are about to do live streaming on the web to see what shocking effect it is going to have. It may not look very dark because our eyes can adapt to the change. Mr Whiting arrived with these strange but interesting glasses that kind of looked like 3-D glasses. It was dark looking through the glasses until we looked up. It looked like a quarter moon but it was like a quarter sun. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. I was amazed. It was a great experience watching the solar eclipse and I hope it comes again but better which will be on 2028
