The Transit of Venus

 We will be keeping our eyes to the sky tomorrow June 5th as Venus passes right in front of the sun, it will be a rare astronomical event of the brightest planet! Seeing as this won't happen again until December 11, 2117, We're planning on catching this one. Be sure to get a good seat and protect your eyes while looking to the sun. There will be lots of observatory spots open, which would be a perfect place to view this phenomenon!  We'll be witnessing something that has fascinated people through the centuries!

Mum and I have been learning the constellations so we can easily recognize them this summer while we stargaze and drink tea on hot summer nights!
