This is the most coverage seen from the UK in 27 years, when people in Cornwall and Devon enjoyed a total solar eclipse. The Royal Observatory Greenwich in London is hosting an eclipse viewing session from 4pm with members of the Flamsteed Astronomy Society on hand to answer any questions about the eclipse. Keele University is inviting people to watch from its campus, where eclipse glasses and solar telescopes are also available, while the Eddington Astronomical Society has organised a free, informal eclipse viewing event with free solar glasses available, along with solar telescopes. To watch safely, pick up solar eclipse viewing glasses – available online or in some museums for around £3 – before looking up at the eclipse. Ensure the safety certification ISO 12312-2 or ISO 12312-2:2015 is printed on the eclipse glasses, which means they will block out the sun's harmful rays.
