See it, Superman! See Krypton die again!! Look at it-- Look and listen! If an Earth human looks up at a solar eclipse without protecting his eyes-- Severe damage is done to the eye... Perhaps resulting in blindness! And according to my calculations... Should a Kryptonian be unfortunate enough to look directly into the super-intense light of Krypton’s explosion-- He, too, will suffer damage-- Damage a million times worse!
