Want to watch the solar eclipse? Here's a easy and fast way to make your own pinhole camera.
*this craft is approved by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory*
Materials needed
- 2 pieces of white card stock
- Aluminum foil
- Tape
- Paper clip
1. Cut a square hole
Fold one piece of card stock in half and cut a square hole in the middle.
2. Tape foil over hole
Tape a square piece of aluminum foil over top of the square hole you cut in the white card stock.
3. Poke a hole in foil
Take the paper clip and poke a small hole in the center of the aluminum foil.
4. Watch the eclipse
Place the second piece of card stock on the ground and hold the piece with foil above it. The foil should be facing up.
Match your shadow with the card stock on the ground. The further away you stand, the bigger the image will be. You can also place the second piece in a shaded area, then stand in the sun to make the image more defined.
