3.  A Solar Eclipse is when the Moon, Earth and Sun are all in alignment. The Moon will block out the Sun’s light. This is because the distance from the moon to the Sun is exactly 400 times as much as Earth to the Moon. Chapter I. Stages of the Solar Eclipse.

4. The sizes between the Earth, Moon and Sun are different but because of the distance between them are all different so it seems the Moon and Sun are both the same size. Solar eclipse stages. The path of the moon.

5.  We will only see a partial Eclipse (80%). We aren’t in the hotspot so we won’t see it properly. The best place to see it is in the North Pole. At 8:30 you’ll see the partial eclipse and at 9;30 you’ll see the centre of moon passing away. Chapter II

6.  We can watch safely by making or buying some special glasses to put on that you can buy. But however, you can also make a simple pin-hole projection viewer. Chapter III

7.  You will need: I.A pin II.A mini cereal box III.Some glue or sellotape IV.Some white paper V.A pair of scissors Chapter IV

8. Step 1. Take the cardboard box and cut out a hole big enough for you eye with scissors. (you might want to get an adult to help you) Step 2. Then a few centimetres up put a pin hole with your pin. Step 3. Then take the piece of paper and glue/sellotape it to the bottom of the box. Now stand away from the Sun hold it up look through the hole and see the Sun beam!

10. Never look directly at the Sun, it could damage your eyes!
