China's 2009 Total Solar Eclipse Witness Tips:
The most important thing is to never look at the Sun directly without proper viewing glasses, and Sunglasses do not work. Solar eclipse glasses will be essential to ensure safe solar viewing of the Total Solar Eclipse. For safe solar observations the solar eclipse glasses contain Solar Skreen mylar (silver colored) lenses to optical density 5.0 set in plain white cardboard glasses with arms. But experts advise watching the Sun only for short periods of time. If the glasses are at all damaged -- with scratches or holes in the protective coating -- do not use them.
Special note for Solar Eclipse Tour booking:
1. Sheshan astronomical observatory provides a special courtyard on the mountain summit for astronomic amateurs to witness this eclipse, the deadline of signing up to join in the witness in the observatory is March 30th, 2009.
2. Astronomic amateurs to witness this eclipse are already get prepared for 2009's eclipse, most of them will make the plan as soon as possible, so the hotel rooms, in the place where were considered to be the best observation venue for the full eclipse, will become more and more difficult while the time is coming, so your earlier booking can make sure your viewing.
