I had *two* once-in-a-lifetime experiences on April 8:

1) a total solar eclipse at Indianapolis Motor Speedway (thanks Purdue University and NASA!)

2) broadcasting live on NBC News with news heroes Lester Holt and Tom Costello. What a thrill!

This Sunday starting at 8pm, CNN asks, “are we alone?” Danny Milisavljevic of Purdue Physics&Astro, is a guest of “The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper.” Don't miss out! #thenextgiantleap #boilerup #jwst #jameswebb Danny Milisavljevic Anderson Cooper Purdue Science Purdue University

My HDR photograph of the 2024 Total Solar Eclipse. This was a stack of 25 images shot with a 72mm refractor telescope and a Nikon Z6, bracketing exposures from 1/8000 to 2 seconds. Six years of planning to make this shot a reality!

The start of totality during the April 8 eclipse!

The Webb Telescope is one of the most incredible things ever built. But it’s only as good as the scientists that get to use it.

We’ve spent two years following 2 teams as they became some of the first scientists to ever work with Webb. Thrilled their stories will air on Sunday!

In 1978 Pat Moriarty gave his students a list of solar eclipses and told them they'll watch the 2024 total eclipse together. Monday, up to 100 of his former students are expected to reunite and complete their 46-year-old assignment. Hallie Jackson reports. nbcnews.com/nightly-news/v…
