The "Transit of Venus"

G'day,
tomorrow you can watch a rare occurance.
The Transit of Venus. Although we here in Australia won't see the complete event due to the sun setting before its finished, it should still be visible for about 2 to 4 hours, depending on where you are.

Broome and Darwin ( and in between )are the best places for observations.

That remainds me of a Tour I ran in 2002 for the Solar Eclipse,
you can read about it here: http://freedsville.org.uk/aus02/p25.htm

Enjoy,
Mike
