Transit of Venus 2012 - Bigger Unit 8

Post by creativemommy » Wed Feb 29, 2012 10:29 am

We just read about the Transit of Venus this week in Bigger's science unit 8. After reading my son begged me to find out when it happens. Turns out it is going to take place June 5 2012!!! It will happen again in 100 years but not on our lifetime. Just wanted to post this for anyone else who might like to watch it this year. :) There is a website devoted to it: transit of Venus dot org that gives details on viewing.
