Lots of Bogotanos turned out today to watch the partial solar eclipse. We found a crowd near the planetarium, which people told me was packed today - for no clear reason, since the institution has no observatory.
I didn't see any fancy observation glasses, but instead pinhole cameras, smoked glass - and even old floppy disks. Good to see that those things are still good for something.
