Why is it dangerous to view a solar eclipse with your naked eyes?

190 views

Solar eclipse is just moon coming between sun and earth and its shadow getting cast on earth. Since the sun rays are getting blocked due to the moon, shouldn’t it actually be safer to view it directly as compared to normal sun?

Not all of the Sun’s rays will be blocked. The Sun is a *very* intense light source, so even a small section showing around the moon is enough to damage your eyes.
