TL;DR Summary

Laverne Biser, a 105-year-old eclipse chaser from Fort Worth, is excited to witness his 13th solar eclipse on April 8. Having chased eclipses since 1963, he has traveled the world to witness these celestial events and has even built handmade telescopes. Biser's advice for viewers is to watch the entire eclipse with protective glasses, but to take them off when it goes total. His love for the cosmos began in high school, and he continues to be passionate about astronomy at almost 106 years old.
