The total solar eclipse that we will be experiencing is a HUGE deal, and even NASA is heading to the Hoosier state for it!. What makes this year’s total solar eclipse such a huge deal, is the fact that this won’t happen again over our area for another 819 years (how did they figure that out? No clue, but science is cool). So many places along the path of totality are gearing up for a lot of tourism, and a very busy April 8th. One of those places along the path of totality is Indianapolis, and Indy is hosting a huge event that involves NASA.
