As the much-anticipated and rare solar eclipse approaches, scientists have come up with some ways to enhance our experience of it, central the report said.
While there is no formal dress code, wearing red or green will trigger the Purkinje effect, enhancing the visual experience for eclipse enthusiasts.
The Purkinje effect, also known as the Purkinje shift, is a phenomenon in which our eyes become more accustomed to blue-green tones in low-light conditions.
During a solar eclipse, because the moon blocks the sun’s light, the surrounding environment will gradually turn blue-green as the total eclipse approaches.
according to Space Networkwhen a solar eclipse occurs, our eyes become more sensitive to hues in the blue-green region of the spectrum.
As complementary hues, red and green enhance each other’s effect when viewed together.
Therefore, wearing red and green clothing during a solar eclipse can enhance our ability to see detail and contrast in low-light conditions.
A spokesman for Solar Eyeglasses said, “The Purkinje effect during the upcoming solar eclipse will take the entire experience from just watching the sky darken to a real-life science demonstration on clothing. But to actually see the colors Changes in saturation, people who need a lot of work need to wear these complementary reds and greens. Just two to five people out of 100 is not helpful.”
They also recommend avoiding neutral colors like black, grey, white or brown if you want to experience the full effect.
