We tried to see the famous Transit of Venus across the Sun. We were all geared up with welder's lenses and a pin-hole camera.We were defeated, sadly, but an overcast sky. So, if you were with us, looking hopefully at the cloud cover hoping for a quick peak, here's what you might have seen. The best description I heard was that it looked like "a freckle on the Sun."
Sadly, for those of us who were unable to witness this 'live', we have to wait until 2117 for the next chance. Which, on a more positive note, would give you LOTS of time to vacation at Bondi Village and enjoy our Dark Skies program...
