Watching safely

Use certified eclipse glasses (ISO 12312-2) or a pinhole projector for every partial phase. Never look through binoculars, a camera or a telescope without a proper solar filter on the front. Only during totality, when the Sun is completely covered, is it safe to look with bare eyes.
