Venus did a transit across the Sun in 2012. Pretty cool. The next one will occur in 2117 for those who missed it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transit_of_Venus,_2012
I missed it tonight at dusk but they say tomorrow night at dusk it will be visible WSW. I am going to try then to view it.
Yes, thank you for posting this information. Last night as I was getting into my shower, I looked outside onto the sunset and something striking immediately caught my attention, and I knew that I was not beholding a star.
I saw this last night while I was out on a walk. It was the bright star right next to the moon, correct? Regardless, it was one beautiful night! :sunny:
