Safety Guidelines for Viewing the Solar Eclipse in NYC

When it comes to celestial events, there's nothing quite as mesmerizing as a solar eclipse. However, viewing this natural spectacle requires certain precautions, especially in places like New York City where the path of totality doesn't pass directly. A solar eclipse occurs when the moon aligns itself between the Earth and the sun, blocking the sun's light and casting a shadow on our planet. This celestial spectacle is a rare occurrence, making it a highly anticipated event for both astronomy enthusiasts and casual observers. The path of totality refers to the narrow strip where observers can witness a total solar eclipse. Unfortunately, New York City doesn't fall within this path for the upcoming event. Cities like Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Lake Placid, and Plattsburgh in New Yo...
