How should a solar eclipse be viewed?
Most of the people who are completely ignorant of scientific knowledge say that during an eclipse, certain types of rays are emitted from the sun which affect humans and cause many accidents, the fact is that there are any such rays. Not those that affect humans, but scientists and ophthalmologists avoid seeing the eclipse with the naked eye, because during an eclipse, when the moon completely covers the sun, the light of the sun dims, but as soon as the moon and the sun If it starts to move away from the front of the eye, then the bright light of the sun suddenly falling into the eyes can burn the retina of the eyes.
Is this intense light emitted only during an eclipse? So not at all, the sun should never be seen with the naked eye and if you want to enjoy the solar eclipse, instead of using x-ray paper or normal sunglasses, use only certified solar glasses or 13 and 14 number welding glasses. use
If a pregnant woman uses any sharp iron object, including scissors, knife, etc. during a solar or lunar eclipse, the child born will be born with disabilities, there is no truth in this.
Those who are interested in astronomy in Pakistan have to face extreme difficulties because astronomical equipment including telescopes, solar lenses etc. are not easily available in Pakistan but they have to be procured from USA or China which are expensive. Along with this comes the harassment of security personnel at airports, which is why apart from a few thousand people in Pakistan there are many people who do not have astronomy equipment but are fond of it.
There are many things that hobbyists can do to keep themselves safe and view the solar eclipse with ease.
