Tomorrow: Transit of Venus



The rare Transit of Venus is coming Tuesday afternoon in the United States. The next time this astronomical phenomena will happen is 2117.

At its heart, the exquisite show in the heavens is simple — Venus will cross paths between the sun and the Earth, and Earthlings will see a tiny dot floating across the surface of the sun over several hours.

In Central Florida, the Transit of Venus was a huge flop. Why? Mother Nature did not cooperate. Too much rain and clouds.

It would be nice to try to find a nice video of the event.

Maybe You Tube will have something worthwhile watching.
