The solar eclipse of March 29 is just around the corner!
On Saturday morning, the sun will rise in partial eclipse over 13 U.S. states and a large swath of northeastern Canada. As the new moon covers up to 93 percent of the visible solar disk, millions of people will be able to witness our star appear to gain a pair of “devil horns” in the ominous light of dawn.
However, even if you're not in close proximity to the eclipse or don't have protective glasses, you can still follow the progress of this rare event through several free online streams, which can be found right here on this page, thanks to Timeanddate.com and the Royal Observatory Greenwich.

Starting at 5:30 a.m. ET, Timeanddate will show the partial eclipse from various angles and locations around the world. The exact time, duration, and size of the eclipse will vary depending on where you're watching it.
The live stream will show images and video of the eclipse as the sun rises in North America, with the best views from St. John's, the capital of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. If the weather is clear, the “devil's horns” will be clearly visible on the sun as the eclipse peaks around 7:53 a.m. ET, reaching 82% coverage of the solar disk, according to Timeanddate's eclipse map. The partial eclipse over Newfoundland will end an hour later.

The Timeanddate feed will also feature several views from across the Atlantic. These will include images from Siena, Italy, where the maximum eclipse of around 5% can be seen at midday local time; views from Kristiansand and Skibotn, Norway, where the sun will reach 30% and 37% eclipse, respectively; and a feed from the Royal Observatory Greenwich in London, UK, where the eclipse will peak around 11:03 a.m. local time with coverage of around 40%.
The Royal Observatory Greenwich will also be hosting its own free live stream of the eclipse, starting at 10am local time. To watch the morning eclipse, you can use the stream below.

If you're watching live, you won't need anything more than your eyes (and maybe a fresh cup of coffee). But if you do get to see the partial eclipse in person, you MUST wear protective eyewear — like certified solar eclipse glasses or a backyard telescope with solar filters — at all times, according to NASA. Unlike the total solar eclipse that occurred over North America last year, there will be no moment of totality (when the sun is completely blocked by the moon) during Saturday's partial eclipse, so there will be no safe time to take off your eclipse-viewing glasses.
