WLWT News 5's Steven Albritton sat down with Rao to talk about the upcoming April 8th Total Solar Eclipse that will cover the Cincinnati area, the moment he fell in love with studying the skies and how this event will be not only a meaningful event for the family, but could inspire the next generation of scientists.
