For the last total solar eclipse, in 2017, I drove 4 hours to get to the path of totality. This time, I'm not traveling farther than just down the street.

Really nice article--wishing us clear skies in Bloomington!

We'll be sharing the view from IU Bloomington as a webstream (full disk white light and full disk hydrogren-alpha). Here's to hoping!!

HI Josh, I have a question if you could find the time to answer.
Being that you're a space reporter I feel like you'd know this, for every solar eclipse we've had in 2017 and prior, was there always heavy coverage on it like it is for this year's 2024??
I don't even remember knowing about 2017's solar eclipse until AFTER it happened because I don't remember hearing anything about it...but regarding this one I've been hearing about it for 2 months now. Everywhere I turn someone is talking or reporting about the solar eclipse and I guess it just made me curious..

Has there always been this much coverage regarding solar eclipses??
