during solar eclipse we can not look at the sun direct with naked rays?

Answer 1

Well you're right.

Answer 2

You can't look directly at the sun with naked eyes i.e. without some pretty hefty sunglasses to protect your eyes.

You can't actually look at the sun at any time with naked eyes, but the warning is issued during an eclipse because 1. people are unlikely to be looking at the sun at any other time and 2. people assume that because the light is dimmed it's ok to look at the sun, when in fact the sun is just a bright, just partially hidden behind the moon, so the bits you can still see of the sun are still capable of damaging your eyes just as much.

Answer 3

during a total solar eclipse, during the few seconds of totality, you CAN look at the sun, because it's covered by the moon, and you can only see the corona on the outside.
any other time, including a partial solar eclipse, you should NOT look at the sun.
the danger is that during a partial, it looks like you should be able to look at the sun, because it's not as bright. but the UV will still blind you.

Answer 4

During the total phase of a solar eclipse you can look at the sun all you like, and it's a spectacular sight!

During the partial phases people tend to look at the sun to try to see what's going on, look more than is healthy to do so, and hurt their eyes. Only during the couple of minutes immediately adjacent to totality can you look and see actually anything.

The quickest and dirtiest solution for safely observing the partial phases is a pinhole camera. I made one out of a cardboard box for the partial eclipse we saw here in 2002.

Answer 5

Correct, but during a lunar eclipse you can :)

Looking directly at the photosphere of the Sun (the bright disk of the Sun itself), even for just a few seconds, can cause permanent damage to the retina of the eye, because of the intense visible and invisible radiation that the photosphere emits. This damage can result in permanent impairment of vision, up to and including blindness. The retina has no sensitivity to pain, and the effects of retinal damage may not appear for hours, so there is no warning that injury is occurring.

Answer 6

Well........ You can....... But it's an excellent way to damage your eyes and end up going blind ☺

The best way is to make a 'pinhole' camera by pushing a pin through a sheet of paper to make a small hole and then holding that above another piece of paper to create an image of the event on the paper. That or get a heavy-duty welders mask to look through.
