Astronomy and education
Consumers in visible regions may purchase eclipse glasses and travel for viewing, generating localized spending. However, the partial nature and limited visibility across most of North America reduces overall consumer engagement compared to total eclipse events.
Minimal regulatory response expected. Potential safety guidance from health authorities regarding proper eclipse viewing. Educational institutions may incorporate eclipse observation into curricula.
