2028 total solar eclipse in New Zealand likely big tourism drawcard, astronomer says

An astronomer was so excited by the prospect of witnessing a total solar eclipse on his doorstep, he bought his house 10 years ago with it in mind.

I'd love to see this from on the water, what do you all think? I'm amazed someone bought a house especially to see it though, that's just amazing.

What about 2026 in Iceland? That always struck me as probably the kind of place to experience something like that
- A bit more spendy to get there though.
  
  That depends where you're coming from.
  
  Can you go to Spain instead?
That star nerd should stick to space and leave tourism numbers to the economists.
