An extraordinary experience: A total solar eclipse
Its 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.
