The Venus transit offers a chance for modern-day stargazers to repeat the experiments conducted by expeditions around the world in the 18th and 19th centuries--with a modern twist
NASA’s SDO (Solar Dynamics Observatory) captured incredible footage of the Transit of Venus (now that’s out of the way for another 120 years or so) in several different formats. The videos were originally released individually as shared in Caleb’s post, The Venus Movies, but are even more resplendent in this beautiful montage, with appropriately majestic music for this rare event.
