Last Venus Transit of our lifetime!

Next is after 105.5 years

What is a

Transit of Venus??

A transit of Venus is the observed passage of the planet across the disk of the sun. The planet Venus, orbiting the sun “on the inside track,” catches up to and passes the slower earth. Venus, appearing as a small dot in the foreground, will move from left to right across the sun. The word “transit” means passage or movement—in this case, across the face of the sun.
