As many as 400-Thousand visitors could be drawn to Nebraska later this month to view the Great American Eclipse.
The total eclipse of the sun will occur August 21st, with Nebraska as one of the best states to see it.
Governor Pete Ricketts says preparation will be the key to safely viewing the total eclipse of the sun. . .
Nebraska Tourism Director John Ricks says communities all along the so-called path of totality, from Scottsbluff to Beatrice have planned special events with experts to give visitors to the state more than just the two minutes of viewing the eclipse. . .
No one knows just how many visitors the eclipse will draw to Nebraska, but estimates vary from as few as 100-Thousand to as many as 400-Thousand.
