Title: Total Eclipse 2024 in USA
Post by: Shamrock Shore on July 22, 2023, 08:32:42 AM
As a massive astronomy geek I intend heading to the USA in April to view the eclipse.

I reckon Dallas will give me a chance of a cloud free experience (and there are direct flights from Dublin) as well as stocking up on some good ole JFK nonsense.

Thought this was going to be about a Bonnie Tyler concert.

Swore I'd do this in 2017 for their last total eclipse but missed it. Fair play. Its definitely on my bucket list.

2090 is the next one for our shores.

That's interesting. Perhaps time to visit my cousins in Ontario, although that time of year does not suit.

At 115 years of age, I hope my eyes are ok.
