The August 17, 2017 eclipse — as well as the April 8, 2024 eclipse — were documented in the Wolfram Blog article Double Eclipse! Or Why Carbondale, Illinois, Is Special back in 2017. This project shows the path for totality of these two eclipses; the paths intersect in proximity to the town of Carbondale, IL. This location is 200 miles south of Wolfram's corporate HQ; I'm confident many staffers will attend both events. Witnessing the intersection of these two events is an astronomical event that may never be eclipsed!
Stephen Wolfram just published a book on eclipses [...]
On top of everything else he does, what a remarkable proclivity for writing books! This book had a deadline, and it was published in a timely manner. The Amazon URL was correct, but the Wolfram Media entry for the title should also be noted. I see that Stephen has a discussion of the solvability/unsolvability of the Three Body Problem; that alone should be worth the price of admission.
