Do I need special glasses to watch a lunar eclipse?
Quick Answer: No, you do not need special glasses to watch a lunar eclipse. It is perfectly safe to watch with your naked eyes.
A lunar eclipse happens when the Earth blocks the Sunβs light from reaching the Moon. Unlike solar eclipses, lunar eclipses are much dimmer and do not emit harmful rays.
Because of this, you can comfortably enjoy the event without any eye protection. Grab a blanket, look up, and enjoy the natural show safely!
