"Most Exciting 2-1/2 Minutes in Astronomy!"

Kentucky boasts the longest period of totality of anywhere in the entire path! This occurs at a spot just northwest of Hopkinsville, at 1:24pm - a full 2m40s of totality! True, this isn't the longest eclipse on record, but it's long enough! And this huge amount of totality is enough of an incentive to consider this part of the world as your preferred site for viewing the eclipse!

Events will be planned over the next few years.  Please e-mail any suggestions to ccook@visithopkinsville.com
