Oregon's 2017 August 21 Total Solar Eclipse Focus binoculars on distant terrestrial object, then project Sun's image onto white paper for safe eclipse viewing (orient larger lenses toward Sun; eyepieces toward paper). CAUTION: excessive projection intervals will generate heat sufficient to damage binoculars. http: //www. stgeorgeutah. com/news/archive/2014/10/22/ams-partial-solar-eclipse-steals-afternoon- sky-safetytips-viewing-locations-where-to-buy-glasses/#.

Oregon's 2017 August 21 Total Solar Eclipse During total eclipse, look for planets and bright stars as shown in this Celestia simulation. The sky will look very bright in every direction near the horizon, possibly appearing like a 360° sunset.
