EYE SAFETY
Use only eclipse glasses or handheld solar viewers certified to ISO 12312-2. Look directly at the Sun without them only during totality, when the Moon completely covers the Sun, and put them back on as soon as the bright Sun starts to reappear. Never use eclipse glasses with a camera, binoculars or a telescope. This kit does not include eclipse glasses.
