Just nipped out to look at the eclipse before the sun sets behind the hills.
Can hardly read the screen now, for the mass of green and purple dots.
For a safer view, click here[^] (although it seemed to go fizzy a few minutes ago - like someone stood in front of the camera!

Lunar eclipse? Not solar?

No, it was a partial solar eclipse[^]

Whoa. You should never look at those.

Well, depends on the sky conditions, there are times you can look full at the sun and be fine (e.g. at sunset when the air is thick and it's orange). But yeah as a rule looking straight at the sun is a poor idea.

It is his eyes that were affected, not his testes!

Really really bad idea, I hope the hope effect goes away but don't ever repeat it because you may not be so lucky next time.

The potential damage is often exaggerated, in fact.

You do know that watching a solar eclipse can severely damage your retina, don't you?

Quote: to look at the eclipse before the sun sets behind the hills. You Australians are so weird. The rest of the world does not consider it an eclipse when the sun goes behind the hills. We call that sundown. So silly.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

I find it strange that after 2½ hours, the spam is still not removed. Are all the trigger-happy people on vacation at the same time?
