CTV
With Monday’s total solar eclipse set to bathe the region in darkness during the once-in-a-lifetime spectacle, many people still find themselves scrambling to find a pair of eclipse glasses. But if you need still a pair of glasses, we’ve got you covered.
With Monday’s total solar eclipse set to bathe the region in darkness during the once-in-a-lifetime spectacle, many people still find themselves scrambling to find a pair of eclipse glasses.
But as experts have already cautioned over the previous weeks, looking directly at a solar eclipse with the naked eye can cause devastating damage, and therefore special glasses are needed to safely view the astronomical phenomenon.
But if you need still a pair of eclipse glasses, we’ve got you covered.
From 12 p.m. until 3 p.m. on Sunday, April 7, CTV News London will be giving away free solar eclipse glasses in front of our building located at 1 Communications Rd. in London, Ont.
Glasses will be handed out two pairs per person, or four pairs per vehicle while supplies last.
The path of totality only spans 200 kilometres wide, and with London sitting on the edge, the Forest City will only see a partial solar eclipse.
In London, the eclipse will begin on April 8 at 2:01 p.m., peaking at 3:17 p.m. and ending at 4:29 p.m.
