On April 8, 2024, Indianapolis experienced its first total solar eclipse in hundreds of years. We celebrated this once-in-a-lifetime event all weekend long, with NASA experts, special activities, and an outdoor viewing party.
Our dinosaurs got in on the fun, too.
Take a look back with us at this monumental moment. We think you'll agree that it was out of this world.
