Counting down to #VenusTransit

Venus silhouette in the solar corona

Venus is showing on the SDO/AIA 193 image I grabbed from the NASA Space Weather Media Viewer iPhone app. I'm about to drive over to the BGSU Observatory to make sure I'm first up to the roof :)

Conditions are "unsettled" but the phone recording said the rooftop viewing is still ON and we will just have to wait to see Venus when the sun is between clouds.

Conditions in Bowling Green, OH at 5:00pm
