April 8th was the last total solar eclipse to cross the U.S. for another 20 years.
A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth at just the right moment.
Students gathered at CMSA with unique sunglasses to look at this out of this world phenomenon.
Proper eclipse glasses are 100,000 times darker than regular sunglasses to block nearly all visible, infrared, and ultraviolet light and protect our sensitive retinas when looking at the sky.
