In 2024, we helped over 75 million people go completely dark for the total solar eclipse. This year, to celebrate the 250th, our goal is to light up the night for everyone. Let's go!

At American Paper Optics, we have always said that our glasses are "out of this world." This month, the crew of NASA’s Artemis II mission made that literal.

Proud moment for us here. Thanks!

At least four pairs of specialty eyeglasses for viewing eclipses traveled from Bartlett to the moon and back as part of NASA’s manned Artemis II mission.

NASA recently shared this incredible pic of the Artemis II crew wearing our safe solar glasses to take in the Monday eclipse. These four astronauts—Christina Koch, Jeremy Hansen, Reid Wiseman, and Victor Glover—just made history as the first humans to ever witness a total solar eclipse from space.

At American Paper Optics, we are incredibly proud to protect the eyes of these astro-legends as they continue on their 10-day mission around the moon—the first such journey in over 50 years. This mission isn’t just about a flyby; it’s about paving the way for a permanent lunar base and the future of human exploration. Amazing stuff.

Like NASA, American Paper Optics is a proud America250 partner, committed to honoring our country’s history while looking toward a bright, celestial future.

The final photo shows part of the Artemis II crew testing out our safe solar glasses during the 2024 U.S. total solar eclipse, a small but vital step in their historic Artemis II journey. Safe travels, team—see you Friday!
