Colorado’s next total solar eclipse is on Aug. 12, 2045, just 28 short years away.
The northern edge of the path of totality will slice right past I-70 in Denver. Colorado Springs and Grand Junction will be prime viewing spots.
So, stay put? Great American Eclipse has more information on the 2024 eclipse. NASA usually has a site about the 2045 eclipse, but it seems to be down right now.
