Solar eclipse to attract thousands to 'middle of nowhere' in 2028

The state government allocated $24.6 million for infrastructure, with the small roadhouse at Doon Doon already receiving international booking requests. Local officials hope the event brings long-term economic benefits to the remote Aboriginal community.
