      Hi all,

      I have not seen an annular solar eclipse before and I am looking for some advice. I understand that we will only see around 45% occlusion (is that the proper term?) from our area. I was planning to set up a viewing on that saturday for my students, but I am wondering if you all think it would be worth it.

      I will be viewing it myself regardless… after all I need to rationalize the fact that I bought a solar filter for my scope.

      Thanks,

      Ken

        yes, they will be able to see a good chunk bit out of the sun with the solar filter or solar glasses.
