Why is The August Total Solar Eclipse Special?

Usually these eclipses happen in remote locations hard to reach. And it is rare to see a TOTAL solar eclipse. This eclipse is also giving scientists a rare view of the sun's corona. I wonder what they might discover!

"the August 21 eclipse will cross the U.S. from coast to coast, with totality visible from several major cities and other locations that are easily accessible to millions of people. The last time this happened was in June 1918, when the path of totality crossed the country from Washington State to Florida...." National Geographic explains it all HERE
