An extraordinary experience: A total solar eclipse

It’s once in a lifetime — or twice? Illinois is set for a rare, twice-in-a-lifetime event — back-to-back total solar eclipses crossing on the exact same spot. If you remember the eclipse of 2017, the place to be was Carbondale. On April 8, 2024, it will again play host to the same once, or twice, in-a-lifetime celestial event.
