T otal Eclipse of the Heart ( artist depiction ) According to Gary, the Backyard Astronomer , we will have a partial eclipse of the sun in North America on Saturday, October 14th, 2023. (That's the one where the moon appears to partly-cover the sun.)  From Gary TBYA : "Solar eclipses come in basically three flavours, total, annular and partial... On Oct 14, the moon will be farther from Earth and... not block the entire solar disk..." Notes: - It is dangerous to look at any solar eclipse so please DO NOT LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE SUN! - You can use a certified solar filter or a number 14 welder’s lens to look at it. - You can also make a pin hole camera and have the double satisfaction of making something cool, and using it to check out a dadgum solar eclipse!
