On this edition of Enlightening The Eclipse: Countdown To 2017, we visit with Master Educator at Adler Planetarium, Michelle Nichols, who was in Carbondale in early May to work on plans for eclipse activities with other scientists. In this interview, Michelle visits with WSIU's Kevin Boucher in a conference room overlooking Saluki Stadium, where thousands of scientists will be camped on the big day, studying the 2017 Total Solar Eclipse.
