The path of the total solar eclipse in 2017 will travel through parts of Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, North and South Carolina. Northeast Colorado will be extremely close to the path.
A partial solar eclipse is shown in a multiple-exposure (not composite) shot every 12 minutes until the peak at 3:37 pm in Mesa on Oct. 23, 2014. The eclipse was visible over most of North America and covered 44 percent of the Arizona sun. Michael Chow/The Republic.
