On April 8, a rare total solar eclipse offers a unique chance to view every visible planet in our solar system, including a comet near Jupiter, if weather permits. The eclipse blocks the sun's light, making the night sky visible, with Venus visible during the day. Binoculars or telescopes are needed to see other planets. Observers must be cautious before and after totality to avoid eye damage.
