A partial solar eclipse will take place in our country on Saturday, March 29. During the maximum, 35% of the solar diameter will be covered by the Moon in Brussels. The eclipse will start at 11h14, max out at 12h07 and end at 13h01.
Note! Looking at the Sun can irrevocably damage the retina. It is therefore very important to use special filters. Sunglasses, for example, do not provide sufficient protection.
Special eclipse glasses are available in the Planetarium shop for 2.50€.
Moreover, a special solar telescope will be set up in the Planetarium car park to allow the public to watch the eclipse safely. This will only take place in good weather.
