I GOT MY GLASSES!! Nashville Eclipse August 21, 2017
Nashville is known for a lot of things, but soon it will be known for something more.
On August 21, 2017, Nashville, and especially areas north of Nashville, along with approximately an 85 mile wide strip that extends from sea to shining sea, across the U.S., will experience a total solar eclipse. But if you plan on viewing it, you NEED to remember to get your glasses.
I received mine yesterday!
The side shows a tiny map of the U.S. with the trajectory printed on it.
There are low quality glasses out there, so the glasses you order need to be ISO certified, from a reliable manufacturer.
I ordered mine from eclipse2017.org. But PLEASE do your own research to make sure your glasses are safe.
Even if you are in a location that will not experience totality, eclipse glasses are necessary to protect your eyes while viewing it.
The length of totality varies, depending on where in Middle Tennessee you are. Downtown should have about 1 min 56 sec, White House is at 2 min 39 sec, and Gallatin stands to witness a totality of 2 min 40 sec, according to eclipse2017.org.
I'm ready to experience HISTORY!
Get your glasses, be safe, and enjoy!
PLEASE UPVOTE, RESTEEM, AND FOLLOW! THANKS SO MUCH!
