Arrr....Thanks for reminding me!

Tomorrow is the day when Venus crosses infront of the Sun and you'll see a large black dot infront of the sun.

This won't happen again for another 104 years I think so check it out...I'm not sure when exactly tomorrow it is though...LMAO

Local ABC radio was interviewing an astronomer about looking at the sun. What surprised me was that the astronomer said that there are no pain receptors in the eyes that pick up the damage caused by the sun - and then it is all too late.

He suggested indirect methods, including going to a local observatory, or, facing away from the sun, hold a pair of binos with the big lens end facing the sun, while projecting the image from the binos onto a piece of paper etc.

As LittleJohn's post above shows, there's always the net.

I don't think it will be a big black spot - something about 3% of the diameter of the sun.

The full moon is looking great here tonight. I live on top of a hill with nearly 360 degrees view over awesome untamed, unowned, unadulterated virgin forests! The closest town is 25 k's away with a population of 3000.... No smog. The beautifuly white crystal light of the full moon is spreading over the endless kilometres of tree tops on this crisp clear night.............
