Jessica Yellin Instagram – Monday’s Total Solar Eclipse On Monday, people in 15 US states will be able to see a rare total solar eclipse. For 3-5 minutes, the moon will pass between the Earth and the sun, casting the world in an eerie shadow. And around the moon, people will be able to see the solar corona, the normally-invisible “atmosphere” of the sun that will look like a hazy halo of light around the edges of the moon. If you’re watching the eclipse, even if you’re outside the path of totality, you should use protective glasses (no, normal sunglasses aren’t enough). Your pets don’t need glasses (their instincts make them unlikely to look directly at the sun), but if possible you should keep them indoors to reduce anxiety. And if you won’t be in the path of totality on Monday, you can watch a livestream of the eclipse from Indiana University (totality will begin at 3:04 pm Eastern in this area). A member of the #NNN team will be in the path of totality and we’ll bring you a report from the ground- in the newsletter. WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING TO DO FOR THE ECLIPSE?
