My brother sent me this. I actually live really close to where this is happening. About two hours away, maybe less.
Do you think it’s something I should try to attend? If so, how do you think I can attend it?

I don't see a specific event associated with the link that you posted. Could you be a little bit more descriptive as to what you mean and what you're trying to do?

Re: Astronomy Event. Need advice.
It doesn't highlight a specific event, but it does like like some interesting events are coming your way. I would keep my eyes open for new information. It looks like fun.

Re: Astronomy Event. Need advice.
Sorry, I must’ve misread the article. I thought it was an event of some kind.
I can see how I misread it, though. There’s a lot of stress going on. I had to make a trip up to Spokane Washington, and I’ve been up here for a week helping my grandparents move down to where I live. They’re moving in with us.
A lot of stress.
Thanks for pointing that out. If an event does come up, I will try to attend.
