(CNN) – People in the northeast and Canada can look up to the sky for something special this weekend – a partial solar eclipse.

It will be visible Saturday morning, sometime before 5:00 and almost until 9:00 (ET), depending on where you live.

A solar eclipse is when the moon comes between the sun and Earth, blocking part of the sun.

According to space.com, it should look like the moon took a bite out of the sun.

Scientists say some sky-gazers should be able to see a “double sunrise,” which is when the moon makes the rising sun look like it has two horns.

Experts say you need special glasses to view the eclipse safely.
