The “path of totality” is the track the moon’s shadow will follow across Earth. Areas within the eclipse’s roughly 125-mile-wide path of totality will be covered in total darkness for varying amounts of time. Outside of this path, people will only view a partial eclipse.

The Chicago area will see a partial solar eclipse starting around 12:51 p.m. through 3:22 p.m. Maximum coverage, which for the area will be 94%, is set to take place in Chicago at 2:07 p.m., according to the Adler Planetarium. 

Watch above as scientists from NASA breakdown the eclipse live as it sweeps across the country.
