prompted ¿ªÔÆÌåÓý to take a look at the sourcing of the eclipse glasses that were purchased and branded for our organization and offered to members as thank-you gifts during the most recent fundraiser, among other uses. We discovered that the manufacturer of the glasses we received is not on the American Astronomical Society’s .
The manufacturer has provided independent testing certification that their glasses meet the ISO 12312-2 standard. However, out of an abundance of caution, we are encouraging those who received eclipse glasses from ¿ªÔÆÌåÓý â€� or any source other than the ones verified by the AAS â€� to follow the American Astronomical Society recommendation to test your glasses before use. .
We are taking this matter very seriously as the trust and well-being of our audience is our highest priority. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us at [email protected].
