if u saw one tell my how did it look =].

You know you cant look directly at one?  Seriously, you have to have some special device thing, thats easy to make, just to look at it normally. I saw an eclipse when i was in Primary school once. It was pretty epic, most of the school was out on the playing field watching it as best they could without actually looking at it but its basically just the moon going infront of the sun. I have also seen another type of eclipse, i forget what it is called, where the moon actually turns red. Pretty awesome.

Thats a solar eclipse. A lunar eclipse is perfectly safe to look at.

I think you need like some tinfoil to look at it?

or see it from a reflection of the water?

I dunno, I forgot how to look at it

to look at a solar eclips u will need some kind of glasses it has a black lenses not a sun glasses a different one...
and ive seen one before

The best way is to close your eyes. Then you will always see the sun blocked.
