Topic: Venus Transits Sun

Did anyone else get to see the transit today. Next one in 105 years. Pretty cool to see the little dot go across.

We got lucky and had a good clear view. Used a welders mask. A little dot was there and went across like they said. I think you can watch online. Next up is Hawaii. NASA website will probably have it on live.
