One of the biggest questions we’ve gotten about the Aug. 21 solar eclipse is, “ok … so you’ve told me it’s happening, but what time?”

Vox has a super-handy interactive map that shows you not only what time you can catch the eclipse, but also how much the sun will be obscured: http://bit.ly/2tG6njO/.

Denver’s not quite in the path of totality (you’ll have to drive a few hours north into Nebraska or Wyoming yet), but more than 90 percent of the sun will be obscured for a lot of Colorado.

The good news? The eclipse will likely happen during your lunch break, so if you need to step out and look at the sun for a while, your boss shouldn’t give you too much trouble.
