Bill Nye 'the Science Guy' will be in Central Texas for April 8's total solar eclipse

Those of us raised in the '90s may want to pencil in Fredericksburg's Eclipse-O-Rama event next week — because Bill Nye "the Science Guy" is headed to Central Texas. The Planetary Society — the company helmed by the 68-year-old TV personality and science educator — will host the two-day Texas Hill Country camping experience April 7-8. The fest will feature a variety of speakers, activities and food, as well as the chance to join Nye himself to watch the eclipse.
