Tens of millions in the Americas will have front-row seats for Saturday's rare “ring of fire” eclipse of the sun.
It’s a prelude to the total solar eclipse that will sweep across Mexico, the eastern half of the U.S. and Canada, in six months.
HOW TO PROTECT YOUR EYES DURING THE ECLIPSEBe sure to use safe, certified solar eclipse glasses, Lockwood stressed.
April’s total solar eclipse will crisscross the U.S. in the opposite direction.
Almost all these places missed out during the United States’ coast-to-coast total solar eclipse in 2017.
