    You can use this: [​IMG] to see the eclipse (NOT FOR LOOKING AT THE ECLIPSE), the circles will turn to crescents like in the picture.

    Unfortunately my school won't be able to go outside, even though they encourage us to have our parents to take us to see it. I don't know if I will be able to see the Eclipse. However if you are seeing the eclipse be safe and have fun!

    I've been watching it for the last half hour and it's so awesome! I even got to see it through a telescope with a sun filter!

    The Eclipse was amazing! It got so dark that the lights outside turned on, and it got really cold!

    Where I am right now (my house), we get 99.17%! Watching it was super cool as it passed in front of the sun. Our street got darker and the street lights came on ROFL

  17. The full eclipse is amazing and the rest is cool to but not nearly as good.
     
  18. The eclipse was awesome!!! Its so cool how scientists are intelligent enough to predict it and uncover facts about the solar system

    It was pretty cloudy, luckily it cleared up in time! :rolleyes:

    I got a few pictures! :D

    They weren't very good...All I did was put my eclipse glasses in front of the camera lens and took pictures in the sky without looking. xd

    These ones were the only ones that I could kind of see, hopefully y'all got to see the eclipse yourselves. :)
