Protect your eyes from the murderous majesty of the sun!

On Monday, August 21, there will be a total solar eclipse visible in the Continental US.

The last time North America saw a total solar eclipse was in 1979. President Jimmy Carter had given up his peanut farm to avoid potential conflicts of interest, the first world conference on climate change was held in Geneva, and Kourtney's birth ushered in the Kardashian dynasty.

It's been a minute! So in case you forgot: do not look directly at the eclipse without protective eyewear.

Not just any protective eyewear, either—you need certified solar filter glasses. (See above.)

Lucky for you, Buzzfeed is selling limited edition ISO- and CE-certified eclipse glasses!

Who knows where you'll be the next time there's a total solar eclipse?
