. He’s not only a hero who protected his students during a school shooting in Noblesville, IN, but also a four-year letterman on the defensive line from '07 to '10.

We are right at the crossroads of these two paths. Looking forward to experiencing a second total eclipse in April!
Will the 2024 total eclipse be "darker" than the 2017 total eclipse? Possibly, because the path of totality is wider. Assuming you're at the center of the path in 2024, the distance to the edge, where the Sun is still shining, will be greater than it was in 2017. Thoughts?
