Solar Eclipse,Nebraska,Eye Protection

A personal account of watching the solar eclipse in Nebraska without proper eye protection

In 2017, I drove four hours to a field in the middle of Nebraska and put on a pair of borrowed paper glasses to watch the solar eclipse . Just as the moon crossed into the sun’s path, casting an eerie incandescent light all around the clouds that surrounded us, I thought, without any eye protection , somehow less prepared than a midwestern college student.
