      An exciting project. Am wondering if the "black drop" effect will show up above our atmosphere. Herman Heyn hermanheyn.com

      will have to follow it on ISS. Planned and trained so much to get better pictures than my attempts during 2004 (which wasn't that bad), but now the clouds have descended over here for the next week or longer, so no hopes of catching it through my telescopes.

      This would be nice chance for schools in US to organize something interesting. My kids and me- we will be watching it and, I will sure tell our family in Europe to join - it seems that will be visible from their point at sunrise! Great!

      fue maravilloso aunque corto pero sensacional empezó a entrar en la parte superior derecha y fue entrando al sol pero el sol finalmente se oculto fue fantástico.

      Gracias a nuestros cientific@s por compartirnos esta clase de eventos únicos y maravillosos; muy a pesar de que nuestro romántico planeta hermano, bien podría ser la sede del mismísimo infierno cristiano. :)

      we got lucky here in San Antonio texas, was able to see it the transit with pin hole box viewer and follwed the live web cam from Hawaii....although we have cloud cover, we got a few breaks and manage to see the sun and Venus.

      I was lucky enough to go out with the family and share in this once in a life time event with them. I had went to an observatory where excitment was high. Though, the cloud cover, n rain dampened our moods. When I got home, I decided amongst a thunder n lightening storm in Calgary, Alberta, Canada to check the weather of the rest of the World during this event.

      From the places that I checked: Japan, China, Taiwan, Indonesia, Africa, Canada, the US (cept Arizona/California (clear with about 24 degrees), still checking), Ireland, etc all have cloud cover, and in most instances have lightening n rain.

      I find myself asking if Venus's transition had much to do with our weather here on Earth.

      Ok, I'm now going back to the thunder n lightening storm currently going on for the last 2 hours.

      It was great in Hyderabad, India - clear sky with a small cloud cover at ~9:30 a.m. which cleared within 5 minutes. Now I can live in peace for the next 105 years.
