NASA chooses a village in Burgos, rebuilt by 4 brothers, to broadcast the solar eclipse of August 12

NASA has selected a village in Burgos, Spain, which was restored by four brothers, as a broadcast site for the solar eclipse occurring on August 12. The village had been abandoned for 28 years, suffering from structural decay and overgrowth before the restoration project began 18 years ago.

The selection highlights the transformation of the site from a derelict location into a functional space. The restoration effort, led by the four siblings, successfully reclaimed the village's houses and church, which had previously fallen into disrepair following the departure of its last residents.
