Britain’s Rare Solar Eclipse This Week | Leicester News

Get ready for a sky show like no other—Britain’s biggest solar eclipse in over two decades is happening Wednesday, August 12th, with up to 96% of the sun blocked by the moon in Devon, Cornwall, and western Wales. Even cities like London and Birmingham will see over 90% coverage, though eastern coasts miss out. It’s not total, but experts say it’s rare—next one won’t be until 2081. Don’t risk your eyes: regular sunglasses won’t cut it. Use certified eclipse glasses or project the eclipse safely with a colander. Find a clear west-facing spot and witness the moon take a cosmic bite out of the sun. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
