Quick Glance: All About Solar Eclipse Glasses Before April 8
  • A total solar eclipse will be visible in the U.S. on April 8, 2024, with 31 million people in a narrow strip from Maine to Texas able to see the sun completely covered.

  • Specialized solar eclipse glasses are essential to protect the eyes during the eclipse, as looking directly at the sun can cause eye damage.

  • There are alternative methods like pinhole projectors or camera obscura to safely observe the event, but regular sunglasses are not sufficient for the eclipse.

  • It is advised to be cautious when purchasing solar eclipse glasses as there are counterfeit products, and some sellers may not adhere to safety standards.

Sam Bankman-Fried sentenced to 25 years for multi-billion dollar FTX fraud
Quick Glance: Sam Bankman-Fried's Verdict: 25-Year Prison Term - BBC News
  • Sam Bankman-Fried received a 25-year prison sentence. Key details from the court hearing in New York were summarized, focusing on his defense lawyer's arguments and the judge's ruling.

  • The judge criticized SBF's lack of remorse, noting that he had never expressed a word of regret for committing terrible crimes. Customers who lost money in the collapse reported experiencing nightmares.

  • SBF admitted to making a series of poor decisions but claimed that customers could be reimbursed. The judge pointed out that the assertion that customers would be fully repaid through the bankruptcy process was misleading.

  • The court hearing also included testimonies from customers who lost significant amounts of money, insights into SBF's background, and the reasons behind the collapse of his company FTX.
